Some scraping to the sides. Rubbing to the spine and the corners: the central area of the spine is significantly darkened. Internally clean. With the three fold-out maps two of which have coloured details and in excellent condition. Very good condition. First published in its original form as Darwin's first monograph under the title "The Structure and Distribution of Coral Reefs Being the first part of the geology of the voyage of the Beagle under the command of Capt. Fitzroy R.N. during the years 1832 to 1836" The monograph set out Darwin's theory of the formation of coral reefs and atolls. He extensively revised and rewrote the book for its 1874 second edition to take into account James Dwight Dana's 1872 publication 'Corals and Coral Islands' and work by Joseph Jukes. This is the third edition with Darwin's prefaces to the first and second edition and a preface to this edition by his son Francis Darwin. It also includes an appendix by the geologist Thomas George Bonney on the study of coral reefs since 1874. "The Structure and Distribution of Coral Reefs" remains an important landmark in the science of coral reefs and is relatively uncommon. Includes references to North-West coast of Australia and the Great Barrier Reef 3rd edition. Half leather. D. Appleton hardcover

DARWIN, Charles
The Structure and Distribution of Coral Reefs. With three plates. Second edition revised.
London Smith Elder & Co. 1874. . Second edition; 8vo; 3 folding maps of which 2 are hand-coloured contemporary ownership signature to the title two short closed tears to the frontispiece map light spotting to the edges of the text block maps part of the title and occasionally the contents; original green cloth titles to spine gilt binding rubbed bumped and a little marked with some loss of size and splits at the ends of the spine hinges cracked a very good copy; 278pp.<br /> Second edition of one of Darwin's earliest books originally published as the first part of The Geology of the Voyage of the Beagle in 1842 and here 'extensively revised and largely rewritten in the light of the findings of Dana and of Jukes' Freeman p. 57. Uncommon in the publisher's cloth.<br /><br />During the course of the voyage of the Beagle 'Darwin's geological achievements mounted up. Using Charles Lyell's radical new Principles of Geology 183033 as a guide he grew bold in interpreting the earth's crust by causes now in operation. The first volume was a gift from FitzRoy the other two reached him during the voyage. He was captivated by Lyell's grand theoretical scheme - "when seeing a thing never seen by Lyell one yet saw it partially through his eyes" Correspondence 3.55 - and confirmed many of Lyell's observations with careful fieldwork. On other points Darwin expanded innovatively especially in understanding the piecemeal formation of the Andes and the origin of coral reefs on sinking mountain rims. There was an immediacy to it all. As he trekked through the Portillo and Uspallata passes of the Andes the coloured rocks seemed almost like a geological diagram and in the Cocos Keeling Islands he waded over the reefs to confirm his theory of the formation of coral atolls. His geology was dynamic with continents slowly rising and sea basins sinking and it formed the basis of all his later views. He endorsed Lyell's belief in an earth gradually shaped over countless ages: time enough - as he later grasped - for evolution by natural selection to occur' Oxford Dictionary of National Biography.<br /> Freeman 275.

THE STRUCTURE AND DISTRIBUTION OF CORAL REEFS
New York: D. Appleton and Company 1889. Hardcover. Good. Third edition with an appendix by Prof. T.G. Bonney D.Sc. F.R.S. F.G.S. 344 p. with three folding plates and the publisher's ads. Octavo. Original brown cloth binding with decorative gilt and black stamping. An ex-library copy with minimal markings: a bookplate to the front pastedown and a small numeric label to the spine. Minor creases to the folding plates. The top edge is a trifle dust stained with some mild foxing to the fore-edge. There is also a small bit of rubbing to the corners and tips. From the library of the esteemed American paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould 1941-2002. In his essay "Worm for a Century" from the collection Hen's Teeth and Horse's Teeth: Further Reflections in Natural History 1983 Gould argued that this Darwin's first book on a specific subject is essential to understanding his theoretical approach: "This book is about coral but it is also about historical reasoning. Vegetable mold formed fast enough to measure its rate directly; we capture the past by summing effects of small and observable present causes. But what if rates are too slow or scales too large to render history by direct observation of present processes For such cases we must develop a different method. Since large-scale processes begin at different times and proceed at diverse rates the varied stages of different examples should exist simultaneously in the present. To establish history in such cases we must construct a theory that will explain a series of present phenomena as stages of a single historical process. The method is quite general. Darwin used it to explain the formation of coral reefs. We invoke it today to infer the history of stars. D. Appleton and Company hardcover
