Publisher's Synopsis
This book covers three major areas: 1) a selection from Darwin's famous On Origin of Species, focusing mainly on his understanding of evolution by natural selection; 2) a selection from Professor Diem-Lane's introduction to evolutionary philosophy; and 3) Charles Darwin's autobiography as edited by his family. As such, this book provides a wide overview of Darwin's views on a variety of subjects. It also draws out some of the implications of his groundbreaking work on psychology and philosophy.
