"This new [third] edition provides the sharpest and most exciting access to Darwin we have ever had. Professor Appleman knows more about Darwin and his commentators than anyone around, and he offers us here a canny and generous way to read and to teach what Darwin said and what others
have imagined he said. This edition allows us to hear and to speak to the past as no other I know; it shows all of us, any of us interested in the heart of our intellectual heritage, how that heritage is sustained, manipulated, and honored."
James R.Kincaid, Professor of English, University of Southern California "ADDleman's Darwin is a must for all enlightened readers who wish to ob-tain a comprehensive understanding of the historical development and im-pact of the evolutionary framework on the modern worldview. It is a rich,unique, and indispensable source of facts and ideas surrounding the issues of evolutionary thought. This important book is of great value to the stu-dent, teacher, scholar, and general reader."
"Today, when science is assaulted by religious flmdamentalists on one side and postmodernists on the other, it is more important than ever to under-stand what Darwin really wrote and said. This anthology provides Darwin's own words along with a range of commentary on their meaning and impli-cations for living, as well as for scholarship."
"Darwinian evolution has served as a lightning rod for some of the most important social and intellectual conflicts of the past two centuries. The Norton Critical Edition of Danwin explains l)arwinian evolution and illus-trates these confrontations better than any book that I am aware of."
Charles Taylor, Professor of Biology, University of California, Los Angeles "Philip Appleman's Darw…is a well-balanced collection of extracts from Darwin's own work, his commentators, and his intellectual descen-dants to the present day…worth acquiring for Appleman's essays alone."
