The Variation of Animals and Plants Under Domestication, Volume II (of 2)
Charles Darwin
Continuing the 1868 edition, Darwin moves into the deeper questions: how variations arise, how they are inherited, and what selection can do with them. These later chapters gather his boldest theorizing on heredity and change. A rich, demanding conclusion to his study of domestication. Press on into the science behind every bred and cultivated form.
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.
