Provides a magisterial overview of all of Darwin's ideas in a brief
and useful format. This book will become the mainstay of the
courses I teach related to Darwin. --Timothy Lenoir, Stanford
University
An excellent selection. There is nothing else like it available in
print, and the price makes it very attractive for use in courses. .
. . overall the editors did a superb job of choosing those excerpts
from Darwin's published works and his correspondence and notebooks
that will give the reader a sense of the full range of his
interests and the substance of his ideas. The editorial remarks are
. . . perceptive and directly relevant to the content. --Gene
Cittadino, New York University
This is simply an outstanding volume . . . exactly what I was
looking for. I especially appreciate the inclusion of the Malthus
and Wallace, plus the notebook selections. I don't know of another
Darwin anthology that does this. It fills a real need. --Lynn K.
Nyhart, University of Wisconsin
