Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1831 a 22-year-old naturalist named Charles Darwin stepped aboard the HMS Beagle as a traveling companion of an equally youthful sea captain called Robert FitzRoy. The Beagle’s round-the-world surveying journey lasted five long years on the high seas. The young Darwin noticed everything, and proved himself an avid and detailed chronicler of daily events on the Beagle and onshore. What Darwin Saw takes young readers back to the pages of his journals as they travel alongside Darwin and read his lively and awestruck words about the wonders of the world. We follow Darwin’s voyage, looking over his shoulder as he explores new lands, asks questions about the natural world, and draws groundbreaking conclusions. We walk in his footsteps, collecting animals and fossils, experiencing earthquakes and volcanoes, and meeting people of many cultures and languages. We examine his opinions on life in all its forms. We consider the thoughts of this remarkable scientist, who poured his observations and research into his expansive theories about life on Earth. In this exciting and educational account, Charles Darwin comes alive as an inspirational model for kids who think and question the world around them.

Book excerpt: History in your hands... Charles Darwin single-handedly revolutionised the way humanity viewed itself. His theory of natural selection, though shocking and controversial at the time, paved the way for a whole new understanding of both the planet and our place on it. Charles Darwin reveals the famous scientist's life in compelling detail as never before. From his early expedition aboard the Beagle leading to his research in the Galapagos Islands, which bought him into contact with some of nature's most extraordinary creatures, this book examines Darwin's own experiences to show how he created the theories for which he became famous. Drawing on recent studies, it also features at least 30 rare and newly researched removable items of facsimile memorabilia, such as diaries, maps, letters, newspapers, sketches and pages from scientific notebooks. You have heard of the man who changed the world, now you can witness how he did it.

This book was released on 2012-08-15 with total page 1034 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Easily the most influential book published in the nineteenth century, Darwin’s The Origin of Species is also that most unusual phenomenon, an altogether readable discussion of a scientific subject. On its appearance in 1859 it was immediately recognized by enthusiasts and detractors alike as a work of the greatest importance: its revolutionary theory of evolution by means of natural selection provoked a furious reaction that continues to this day. The Origin of Species is here published together with Darwin’s earlier Voyage of the ‘Beagle.’ This 1839 account of the journeys to South America and the Pacific islands that first put Darwin on the track of his remarkable theories derives an added charm from his vivid description of his travels in exotic places and his eye for the piquant detail.
