Charles Darwins foremost biographer, Janet Browne, delivers a vivid and accessible introduction to the book that permanently altered our understanding of what it is to be human. A sensation on its publication in 1859, The Origin of the Species profoundly shocked Victorian readers by calling into question the belief in a Creator with its description of evolution through natural selection. And Darwins seminal work is nearly as controversial today. In her illuminating study, Browne delves into the long genesis of Darwins theories, from his readings as a university student and his fiveyear voyage on the Beagle , to his debates with contemporaries and experiments in his garden. She explores the shock to Darwin when he read of competing scientists similar discoveries and the wide and immediate impact of Darwins theories on the world. As one of the launch titles in Atlantic Monthly Press Books That Changed the World series, Brownes history takes readers inside The Origin of the Species and shows why it can fairly claim to be the greatest science book ever published.
