Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species is a pivotal work in scientific literature, and some scholars argue that it is the most pivotal work in evolutionary biology. Darwin introduced the theory that populations evolve over the course of generations through a process of natural selection. It caused outrage when it was first released because it contradicted religious beliefs, which was the foundation of biology at the time. Darwin's book was the culmination of evidence he had accumulated on a long voyage on HMS Beagle back in 1830. He continually added to it through investigations and experiments on his return.
This book is unabridged and appears as it was first intended. First published in 1859.
