Charles Darwin s "On the Origin of Species" is the most important
and yet least read scientific work in the history of science. Now
James T. Costa experienced field biologist, theorist on the
evolution of insect sociality, and passionate advocate for teaching
Darwin in a society in which a significant proportion of adults
believe that life on earth has been created in its present form
within the last 10,000 years has given a new voice to this epochal
work. By leading readers line by line through the "Origin," Costa
brings evolution s foundational text to life for a new generation.
"The Annotated Origin" is the edition of Darwin s masterwork used
in Costa s course at Western Carolina University and in Harvard s
Darwin Summer Course at Oxford. A facsimile of the first edition of
1859 is accompanied by Costa s extensive marginal annotations,
drawing on his extensive experience with Darwin s ideas in the
field, lab, and classroom. This edition makes available an
accessible, useful, and practical resource for anyone reading the
"Origin" for the first time or for those who want to reread it with
the insights and perspective that a working biologist can provide.
