2009ref. S64622Cambridge Ma.: Belknap Press of Harvard University Press 2009. xx 2 ix 537 1 text fig. . HB. Small 4to 212x212mm orig. cloth. Fine in d/w in removable protective sleeve. First edition. Scarce. This is the highly sought-after 2009 hardcover first printing. A cornerstone for any serious Darwin or History of Science collection. Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species is the most important and yet least read scientific work in the history of science. Now James T. Costa - experienced field biologist theorist on the evolution of insect sociality and passionate advocate for teaching Darwin with Darwin in a society where a significant proportion of adults believe that life on earth has been created in its present form within the last 10000 years - has given a new voice to this epochal work. By leading readers line by line through the Origin Costa brings evolution's foundational text to life for a new generation. The Annotated Origin is the edition of Darwin's masterwork used in Costa's course at Western Carolina University and in Harvard's Darwin Summer Course at Oxford. A facsimile of the first edition of 1859 is accompanied by Costa's extensive marginal annotations drawing on his extensive experience with Darwin's ideas in the field lab and classroom. This edition makes available an accessible useful and practical resource for anyone reading the Origin for the first time or for those who want to reread it with the insights and perspective that a working biologist can provide. 9780674032811 Belknap Press of Harvard University Press hardcover
