Duncan Porter – författare

Rather than following a strictly chronological approach - a narrative choice that characteristically offers an ascent to On the Origin of Species (1859) with a rapid decline in interest following its publication and reception - this book stresses the diversity and full extent of Darwin’s career by providing a series of chapters centering on various intellectual topics and scientific specializations that interested Darwin throughout his life.  Authored by academics with years of teaching and discussing Darwin, Darwin''s Sciences is suited to any biologist who is interested in the deeper implications of Darwin''s research.
