"Next to the Bible no work has been quite as influential, in virtually every aspect of human thought, as The Origin of Species ."--Ashley Montagu "Darwin was one of history's towering geniuses and ranks with the greatest heroes of man's intellectual progress."--George Gaylord Simpson in The Meaning of Evolution "It is clear that here is one of the most important contributions ever made to philosophic science; and it is at least behooving on scientists, in the light of the accumulation of evidence which the author has summoned in support of his theory, to reconsider the grounds on which their present doctrine of the origin of species is based."-- The New York Times "Amazingly, 150 years after the publication of The Origin of Species , Darwin's seminal work on the theory of evolution remains the authoritative tract on the subject."-- Library Journal, "Next to the Bible no work has been quite as influential, in virtually every aspect of human thought, as The Origin of Species ."--Ashley Montagu "Darwin was one of history's towering geniuses and ranks with the greatest heroes of man's intellectual progress."--George Gaylord Simpson in The Meaning of Evolution "It is clear that here is one of the most important contributions ever made to philosophic science; and it is at least behooving on scientists, in the light of the accumulation of evidence which the author has summoned in support of his theory, to reconsider the grounds on which their present doctrine of the origin of species is based."-- The New York Times "Amazingly, 150 years after the publication of The Origin of Species , Darwin's seminal work on the theory of evolution remains the authoritative tract on the subject."-- Library Journal

Synopsis
Charles Darwin's classic that exploded into public controversy, revolutionized the course of science, and continues to transform our views of the world. Few other books have created such a lasting storm of controversy as The Origin of Species . Darwin's theory that species derive from other species by a gradual evolutionary process and that the average level of each species is heightened by the "survival of the fittest" stirred up popular debate to fever pitch. Its acceptance revolutionized the course of science. As Sir Julian Huxley, the noted biologist, points out in his illuminating introduction, the importance of Darwin's contribution to modern scientific knowledge is almost impossible to evaluate: "a truly great book, one which can still be read with profit by professional biologist."

Good quality, handy pocket size.
Very good quality. Complete with an introduction by Julian Huxley, which is basically an overview to the rest of the book. I am assembling a series on creation, and the index in the back of the book helps me find key topics quickly. Handy size, too.
