Charles Darwin's "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection" was published #OTD in 1859. 🧪 (1/n)

Cover page of Darwin’s “On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection.” The paper is a mellow, light brown color from age and acidification.

It’s not an easy read- I stuck with it years ago.

Hope you wont mind this off topic related reply. This is a humorous drawing by CM Russell from the book good medicine. He had just had his appendix removed. Letter included.

Still a great read. His evidence and arguments were excellent.

This book is a great example of how science itself "evolves" and changes. This book was written without knowledge of the existence of DNA or how it works. Many details within it are "wrong". And yet... it changed the world, and all of the "errors" gave us good starting points for research.

Sometimes, I imagine what might have been if Darwin and Mendel ever got together.

Now there is a damn good read! If you want to know how to explain something including the things that may be obstacles to your idea being correct then this is a book to read. The 'Voyage of the Beagle' is also worth a look.

The University of Cambridge Digital Library has a scanned copy of "On the Origin of Species" that belonged to Darwin himself. It was the first copy he received from the publisher, according to an explanatory note written by his son on the flyleaf. You can see it here. (2/n)
