[Darwin] Glick, Thomas F., and David Kohn, eds. - On evolution. The development of the theory of natural selection.

Indianapolis/Cambridge: Hackett, 1996 (1st ed.); xvii+356pp., 2 indexes, bibliography, bl-wh illustrations, 2 diagrams, 8vo, paper. As new, w. spine slightly paled. ¶ the editors, historians of science, have made a broad selection from Darwin's most important and relevant works which help the reader "to navigate the ins and outs of the development of the theory of natural selection. A concise general introduction lays out Darwin's theory, which is followed up in the chapter introductions. Each chapter ends with an exerpt from Darwin's correspondence, commenting on the work in question, its significance, impact, and reception. In addition, two essential appendices are included - the first three chapters from Malthus, [An essay on the principle]O[f] population, whichh gave Darwin the idea for natural selection, and the paper by Wallace that motivated Darwin to abandon the 'Big species book' and write [On the] Origin of Species."
