On the Origin of Species (Limited Edition). Picture selection by William Bynum. The book that revolutionised our view of life on earth more than any other, Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species, is presented in a fabulous Folio Society limited edition of 500 numbered copies; half-bound in leather with hand-marbled paper sides. In the book that changed our view of life on earth, Charles Darwin challenged the place of the human race at the centre of creation and started a scientific revolution. Evolution by natural selection had been discussed in academic works, but Darwin’s energetic prose was written to be read and understood by the general public and led to its author being described as’the most dangerous man in England’. Half-bound in goatskin leather blocked in gold foil with lettering and ornaments by Jamie Clarke, and with hand-marbled paper sides by Jemma Lewis, this edition is worthy of the best collections. Grayling’s insightful introduction and Darwin expert William Bynum’s inspired selection of 40 pages of plates illuminate the text, that of the first edition from 1859. Charles Darwin’s book for ever altered the history of mankind and, in highlighting the synergy between life forms and environment, was a pioneer work of ecology – ever more important in our world today. Brand new, sealed and unopened.
