1942Best.-Nr. FB3806 /17Green cloth binding with gilt title on the spine FIRST EDITION This classic work by Julian Huxley first published in 1942 captured and synthesized all that was then known about evolutionary biology and gave a name to the Modern Synthesis the conceptual structure underlying the field for most of the twentieth century. Many considered Huxley's book a popularization of the ideas then emerging in evolutionary biology but in fact Evolution: The Modern Synthesis is a work of serious scholarship that is also accessible to the general educated public. It is a book in the intellectual tradition of Charles Darwin and Thomas Henry Huxley--Julian Huxley's grandfather known for his energetic championing of Darwin's ideas. A contemporary reviewer called "Evolution: The Modern Synthesis' the outstanding evolutionary treatise of the decade perhaps the century".This definitive edition brings one of the most important and successful scientific books of the twentieth century back into print. It includes the entire text of the 1942 edition Huxley's introduction to the 1963 second edition which demonstrates his continuing command of the field and the introduction to the 1974 third edition written by nine experts many of them Huxley's associates from different areas of evolutionary biology.

1942Best.-Nr. 24059Lons: George Allen & Unwin 1942. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine/good. 645 pp bound in original green cloth with gilt spine lettering. Brief gift inscription dated Christmas 1942 on front free endpaper minor staining to bottom edge of text block not affecting interior else a fine copy. In a moderately soiled but complete original dust jacket. "Evolution: the Modern Synthesis 1942 was an expansion of Huxley's 1936 British Association address 'Natural selection and evolutionary progress'. The title of the book linked the author's name with the term 'synthesis' and thus with this important phase in the development of evolutionary biology for it was in the thirties that the new knowledge of the genetics of populations and of mutation were being brought into productive union with the doctrine of natural selection.The text is packed with information and although Huxley had trained and carried out research as a zoologist the work is noteworthy for the breadth of treatment and balance between the plant and animal kingdoms. Attending to plants as well as animals was just one example of the way in which his eclectic approach allowed him to adopt an open position on the significance of different sources of variation and the extent of gradualist evolution and by implication the extent of the creative action of natural selection" ODNB.
