Charles Darwin is arguably the most influential scientist ever. His Source of Species forever transformed our concept of the world's creation. Darwin's innovative career is the perfect vehicle for historian Paul Johnson. Marked by the insightful observation, magnificent wit, and highly readable prose for which Johnson is so well regarded, Darwin brings the gentleman-scientist and his times brilliantly into concentrate. From Darwin's beginning into great bundle of money to his voyage aboard the Beagle, to the long-delayed publication of his masterpiece, Johnson delves into what made this Victorian gentleman into a visionary scientist - and into the tragic flaws that later led Darwin to support the burgeoning eugenics motion.
