HarperCollins is proud to present its range of best-loved,
essential classics. 'How fleeting are the wishes and efforts of
man! how short his time! and consequently how poor will his
products be, compared with those accumulated by nature during whole
geological periods.' Still considered one of the most important and
groundbreaking works of science ever written, Darwin's eminently
readable exploration of the evolutionary process challenged most of
the strong beliefs of the Western world. Forced to question the
idea of the Creator, mid-nineteenth century readers were faced with
Darwin's theories on the laws of natural selection and the
randomness of evolution, causing massive controversy at the time.
However, Darwin's theories remain instrumental in providing the
backbone to modern biology today.
