进化与遗传的全面考察与经典阐述

宇宙进化，导致生命起源；生物进化，导致人类起源；人类进化。导致社会的起源与发展。这就是《物种起源》所揭示的物种的演进规律。

遗传、变异与选择，是生物进化过程中自然选择的三种主导力量。而《物种起源》则全面考察了这三种力量的交互的作用关系。

人类文明史中的不朽巨著

内容简介

The publication of Darwin's The Origin of Species in 1859 marked a dramatic turning point in scientific thought. The volume had taken Darwin more than twenty years to publish, in part becau he envisioned the storm of controversy it was certain to unleash. Indeed, lling out its first edition on its first day, The Origin of Species revolutionized science, philosophy, and theology.

Darwin's reasoned, documented arguments carefully advance his theory of natural lection and his asrtion that species were not created all at once by a divine hand but started with a few simple forms that mutated and adapted over time. Whether commenting on his own poor health, discussing his experiments to test instinct in bees, or relating a conversation about a South American burrowing rodent, Darwin's monumental achievement is surprisingly personal and delightfully readable. Its profound ideas remain controversial even today, making it the most influential book in the natural sciences ever written—an important work not just to its time but to the history of humankind.

影响人类发展进程的划时代著作。1985年美国《生活》杂志评为人类有史以来最佳图书。1986年法国《读书》杂志推荐的最理想藏书之一。《物种起源》的问世，第一次让生物学建立在完全科学的基础之上。彻底推翻了“神创论”和“物种不变论”。
