Charles Darwin : interviews and recollections

edited by Harold Orel

Special emphasis falls on Darwin's family background and education; his eagerness to join H.M.S.Beagle as a naturalist, and his relationship to its Captain, Robert Fitz-Roy; his friendships with eminent Victorian scientists; and his final years at Down, his country home, where he worked on despite serious illness. Darwin's vigorous data-collecting, and the conclusions that he drew from his own massively-documented studies in anthropology, biology, botany, and geology, as well as an enormous body of correspondence with scientists in England and abroad, as well as his close study of publications that recorded the best scientific research of his century, swiftly (and permanently) earned him the respect of his peers. Darwin remains a dominant figure in all histories of science, and we need to know him better.
