书籍简介

该书为查尔斯·达尔文开创性著作的终版，该著作介绍了通过自然选择的进化理论。

查尔斯·达尔文的《物种起源》首次出版于 1859 年，介绍了通过自然选择的科学进化理论，这在当时是一个革命性的想法。达尔文的这部知名著作在出版后引起了激烈的争论，在接下来的十年里经过多次修订，部分原因是为了驳斥作者同时代人的科学和反对意见。在《物种起源》的第六版中，达尔文通过引用他在 19 世纪 30 年代在加拉帕戈斯群岛的贝格尔号上进行的研究以及他在随后二十年的后续研究来阐述他的理论。

These pages include the final edition of Charles Darwin’s groundbreaking work that introduced the theory of evolution by means of natural selection.

First published in 1859, Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species introduced the scientific theory of evolution by means of natural selection, a revolutionary idea at the time. Fiercely debated on its release, Darwin’s famous work was revised several times over the following decade, partly to refute the scientific and religious objections of the author’s contemporaries. In this sixth edition of On the Origin of Species, Darwin lays out his theory by citing his studies done in the Galápagos aboard the HMS Beagle in the 1830s, as well as his follow-up research over the ensuing two decades. 

作者简介

查尔斯·达尔文出生于 1809 年 2 月 12 日。他在爱丁堡大学学习了两年医学，之后进入剑桥大学学习。1831 年至 1836 年间，他乘坐调查船贝格尔号航行，随后出版的《贝格尔号航海日记》为他带来了一些名气和声誉，使他成为一名畅销作家。1859 年，达尔文出版了《物种起源》，该书共发行了六版，每次都有明显的修订。1871 年，他又出版了《人类的由来与性选择》，在这本书中，他首次将进化论思想完全应用于人类。除了与进化论直接相关的作品外，达尔文还发表了植物学、生态学、南美地质学、动物和人类的情感表达以及藤壶的比较研究等主题的著作。

Charles Darwin was born on 12th February 1809. He studied medicine at Edinburgh University for two years before going up to Christ's College Cambridge. Between 1831 and 1836 he sailed on the survey ship HMS Beagle, and the subsequent Journal of the Voyages of the Beagle brought him some fame and repute as a popular author. In 1859 Darwin published On The Origin of Species, which went through six editions, each noticeably revised. These were followed in 1871 by The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex in which he first fully applied his ideas of evolution to the human species. As well as the works directly related to the subject of evolution, Darwin published on subjects such as botany, ecology, the geology of South America, the expression of emotions in animals and man, and the comparative study of barnacles.
