"Darwin, Then and Now" is a journey through the most amazing story
in the history of science; encapsulating who Darwin was, what he
said and what scientists have discovered since the publication of
"The Origin of Species" in 1859.
While recognized as one of the most influential individuals of
the twentieth century, little is widely known about his personal
life, interests, and motivations. This book explores Darwin's
driving passion using Darwin's own words from "The Origin of
Species," "Autobiography," "Voyage of the Beagle" and letters.
In retracing the roots of evolution from the Greeks, "Darwin,
Then and Now" journeys through the dynamics of the eighteenth
century that lead to the publication of "The Origin of Species" and
the succeeding role of key players in the emerging evolution
revolution.
"Darwin, Then and Now" examines Darwin's theory with more than
three-hundred quotations from "The Origin of Species," spotlighting
what Darwin said concerning the origin of species and natural
selection using the American Museum of Natural History Darwin
exhibit format.
With over one-thousand referenced quotations from scientists
and historians, "Darwin, Then and Now" explores the scientific
evidence over the past 150 years from the fossil record, molecular
biology, embryology, and modern genetics. Join the blog at
