GEORGE, WILMA / DARWIN, CHARLES - Darwin

Fontana, 1982.. 1st printing. 160 p., incl. glossary & references SOTCOVER: (Orig pictorial card wrappers, black title lettering on white. Spine black with lettering white. Name on end paper.VERY GOOD) ¶ Charles Darwin's ideas resonate deeply in Western culture today, and his theory still lies at the heart of modern scientific evolutionary research. As other nineteenth-century figures fade, Darwin's theory of evolution still provokes controversy, spilling over into curriculum battles at state and local school boards in the United States and around the world. In exploring the everyday artifacts of Darwin's life, his notebooks, and early manuscripts, Niles Eldredge "a candid, no-punches-pulled interpreter of the core ideas of evolutionary biology" (Science News) provides a rare glimpse into the mind of this highly intuitive, creative scientist. Niles Eldredge is a paleontologist and a curator at the American Museum of Natural History and the author of many books on evolutionary theory.
