Darwin, and After Darwin, Volumes 1 and 3
George John Romanes
Classification, morphology, embryology, palaeontology, geographical distribution: Romanes marshals every line of evidence for evolution, then turns to the theory of selection itself. This combined volume gathers the foundation and the finale of his great survey. Systematic, thorough, and built to persuade. Trace the full case for descent with modification, argued point by point.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
