Featuring hundreds of quotations carefully selected by world-renowned Darwin biographer Janet Browne, \u003ci\u003eThe Quotable Darwin\u003c\/i\u003e draws from Darwin's writings, letters to friends and family, autobiographical reminiscences, and private scientific notebooks. It offers a multifaceted portrait that takes readers through his youth, the famous voyage of the \u003ci\u003eBeagle\u003c\/i\u003e, the development of his thoughts about evolution, his gradual loss of religious faith, and the time spent turning his ideas into a well-articulated theory about the natural origin of all living beings-a theory that dangerously included the origin of humans. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Quotable Darwin\u003c\/i\u003e also includes many of the key responses to Darwin's ideas from figures across the social spectrum, scientists and nonscientists alike-and criticism too. We see Darwin as an innovative botanist and geologist, an affectionate husband and father, and a lively correspondent who once told his cousin that he liked to play billiards because \"it drives the horrid species out of my head.\" This book gives us an intimate look at Darwin at work, at home, as a public figure, and on his travels. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eComplete with a chronology of Darwin's life by Browne, \u003ci\u003eThe Quotable Darwin\u003c\/i\u003e provides an engagingly fresh perspective on a remarkable man who was always thinking deeply about the natural world.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCharles Darwin\u003c\/b\u003e (1809-1882) was an English naturalist, geologist, and biologist who developed the revolutionary theory of evolution by natural selection.
