His journal, here reprinted in a shortened form, shows a naturalist making patient observations concerning geology, natural history, people, places and events. Volcanoes in the Galapagos, the Gossamer spider of Patagonia and the Australasian coral reefs - all are to be found in these extraordinary writings. The insights made here were to set in motion the intellectual currents that led to the theory of evolution, and the most controversial book of the Victorian age: The Origin of Species . This volume reprints Charles Darwin's journal in a shortened form. In their introduction Janet Brown and Michael Neve provide a background to Darwin's thought and work, and this edition also includes notes, maps, appendices and an essay on scientific geology and the Bible by Robert FitzRoy, Darwin's friend and Captain of the Beagle.

Review: If you are from Chile, read this book - I really enjoyed this book, an amazing 5 years adventure of Charles Darwin and Captain FitzRoy circumnavigating the world. Specially interesting for me was the journey through Chile, from cape Horn to Valparaiso my home town, since he provide a rich account of the people, geography and cities in those years. Also the visit to the Atlantic Island of St Helena where Napoleon was yet buried. Along the book there are some comments of Darwin about the differences of colonization made by Spanish and English settlement that I totally agree. Review: If you don't "believe" in evolution, then read this book! - In this book, Darwin traces his experiences as the scientist on board of British exploratory vessel. Beginning his journey with the firm belief that all species of creatures invented by God were the same from the beginning of time to his present, he closely observed the geology, flora and fauna of the many places he visited, especially of the Galapagos Islands. Observing the variation yet apparent relationship of each species to another, and the extraordinary match of animal physiology to plant life caused him to ask questions never before imagined, which lay the basis for his later formulation of the theory of evolution of the species. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #87,118 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #177 in Travelogues & Travel Essays #194 in Scientist Biographies #341 in Traveler & Explorer Biographies | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 318 Reviews | ## Images ![The Voyage of the Beagle - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91eVCiYFGQL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you are from Chile, read this book *by L***A on July 5, 2005* I really enjoyed this book, an amazing 5 years adventure of Charles Darwin and Captain FitzRoy circumnavigating the world.
