Overview

This volume is a reissuance of Darwin's autobiography, written in 1876 and first published posthumously in 1887. A new introduction by H. James Birx (anthropology, Canisius College) provides a contemporary perspective on Darwin's research and theories. The text includes Darwin's reflections on his discovery of the theory of organic evolution by means of natural selection, as well as his thoughts on religious beliefs, on scientific research, and on the controversy over his theory of evolution.
