The sixth edition extensively rewritten by Darwin and published in 1872 removed the word 'On' from the title 'On the origin of species' and includes rebuttal of Roman Catholic biologist St. George Mivart's theological arguments in his 1871 text On the Genesis of Species. The sixth edition is significant for including the use of the word 'evolution' for the first time in furtherance of Darwin's argument for natural selection. It is the last edition published in Darwin's lifetime and includes extensive revisions and rewriting by the author. The sixth edition went through numerous printings and includes all Darwin's revisions since On the origin of species was first released in 1859. It is considered the definitive text for what many consider to be the most significant scientific book ever published. Freeman 439 hardcover
