Customer Reviews
Darwin is still a worthwhile read
I had never read this before. Darwin's rationale for devising the theory of natural selection is a masterpiece of logical thought applied to data.
On the Origin of Species
This book is a classic. It is very readable for such an important scientific work. Many people think they know what this book says, but they settle for second hand information--usually incomplete and sometimes just wrong. This book should be read by anyone interested in science, education, religion and planet Earth.
Interesting
This is a good book. Well written and full of valuable information. I recommend it to everyone.
