Description: Charles Darwin ON THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES 1976 Collector’s Edition Genuine Leather On the Origin of Species by Charles Darwin (1976, Hardcover, Leather bound, Illustrated, Collector’s Edition) is a groundbreaking work that changed the course of human thought. The book introduced the scientific theory that populations evolve over the course of generations through a process of natural selection. It presented a body of evidence that the diversity of life arose by common descent through a branching pattern of evolution. The publication of On the Origin of Species ushered in a new era in our thinking about the nature of man. The intellectual revolution it caused and the impact it had on man’s concept of himself and the world were considered by many to be greater than those caused by the works of Isaac Newton (1642–1727) and other individuals. This Easton Press edition is a true collector’s item. The book is bound in full genuine leather with 22 kt gold accents and lettering. The pages are printed with acid neutral paper that is thread sewn, not glued together. The edges of the pages are gilded with 22 kt gold to further protect them. A silk page marker is sewn into the binding. There are raised spine bands that give each volume that distinctive antique look. The end papers are lustrous silk moiré.
