This year marks the 150th anniversary of the publication of Charles Darwin¡¦s On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation
of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life. In his landmark study, Darwin theorized that populations evolve over the course of generations through a process of natural selection. These ideas flew in the face of long-held beliefs, and the book immediately became one of the most controversial scientific works in history¡Xand it still remains so today. Now, for the first time, Darwin¡¦s classic is fully and handsomely illustrated with more than 350 illustrations and photos, many of them in brilliant color.
