First edition of this compilation of Charles Darwin's most influential works in their entirety contained for the first time in one volume. Thick Octavo, original boards. Presentation copy, warmly inscribed by James Watson to his friends on the half-title page, "For Peter and Dori from Jim." Fine in a fine dust jacket. Text includes commentary by Nobel laureate James Watson.
Included in this volume are four of the most influential works of Charles Darwin, reprinted in their entirety, each with commentary from Nobel Prize-winning scientist James D. Watson. Included are On the Origin of Species, arguably the most important scientific work of the nineteenth century; Voyage of the Beagle, a captivating travelogue richly stocked with observations that helped guide the young Darwin through his evolutionary world view; The Descent of Man, which explored the origins of humans and their history; and The Expressions of Emotions in Man and Animals, which explored the origin and nature of the mind. With his separate introductions for each of Darwin's books he goes further to explain how the modern considerations underlying genome research would have been impossible without Darwin, bringing a contemporary relevance to these nineteenth century masterworks.
