― Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man

A collection of rare editions of two of Charles Darwin’s most influential works: ‘Origin of Species’ and ‘Descent of Man.’. Darwin’s ‘Origin of Species’ is considered, one of the most important scientific books ever written. His work, ‘Descent of Man’ helped lay the foundation for many of the theories of evolution that would shape human thinking for the next century. This is the work in which Darwin’s theories of evolution by means of natural selection were realized.
