Are they needed? To be sure. The Darwinian industry, industrious
though it is, has failed to provide texts of more than a handful of
Darwin's books. If you want to know what Darwin said about
barnacles (still an essential reference to cirripedists, apart from
any historical importance) you are forced to search shelves, or
wait while someone does it for you; some have been in print for a
century; various reprints have appeared and since vanished."
--Eric Korn, "Times Literary Supplement"
Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882) has been widely recognized
since his own time as one of the most influential writers in the
history of Western thought. His books were widely read by
specialists and the general public, and his influence had been
extended by almost continuous public debate over the past 150
years. New York University Press's new paperback edition makes it
possible to review Darwin's public literary output as a whole, plus
his scientific journal articles, his private notebooks, and his
correspondence.
This is complete edition contains all of Darwin's published
books, featuring definitive texts recording original pagination
with Darwin's indexes retained. The set also features a general
introduction and index, and introductions to each volume.
