Beschreibung:
First edition. 8vo. xvi, 494, (2) pp. Publisher's green cloth, gilt lettered and ruled to spine, neatly rebacked preserving most of the original spine, book label of the entomologist Norman Hickin to the front free endpaper, another prior's owner's ink stamp to the head of the title page, a further old ink stamp of "Hotel Continental Mustapha-Alger" to the header of the first page of the preface. Lacking the frontispiece portrait of Wallace but with the folding colour map (this also featuring the hotel stamp on the verso) and 37 text figures. Some light wear to the cloth, else very good. Wallace's letter to Darwin from the far east in 1858 led to their collaboration and prompted Darwin to publish "The Origin of Species" a year later. This work updates his theories for a society where evolution "is now universally accepted as the order of nature in the organic world" (Preface). Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 46210

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Alfred Russel Wallace was a British naturalist and explorer who independently discovered the theory of evolution through natural selection around the same time as Charles Darwin. In his book, 'Darwinism: An Exposition of the Theory of Natural Selection with Some of Its Applications,' Wallace explains the key principles of Darwin's theory and their implications for the understanding of life on earth. Wallace argues that the principle of natural selection is the driving force behind the evolution of species, with organisms that are better adapted to their environment more likely to survive and reproduce. He also discusses the concept of variation, or the idea that individuals within a species exhibit differences that can be inherited by their offspring and that can accumulate over time. Wallace also delves into the social implications of Darwin's theory, noting that it challenges traditional religious and philosophical views of human nature and our place in the natural world. He argues that Darwinism offers a more rational and scientific approach to understanding the diversity of life on earth and our own place in the evolutionary process. Overall, Wallace's 'Darwinism' provides a clear and concise overview of the theory of natural selection and its applications, as well as its broader implications for science, philosophy, and society.
