Sobre este artículo
Octavo, 184pp., Publisher's cloth with printed paper label on spine.. 19th c. bookplate; spine label tanned and soiled (one corner shipped); tight and sound.. A very good copy of a work notorious for surfacing in rough shape. 12mo,. Illustrated from engravings. Huxley's vigorous public support of his friend Charles Darwin's evolutionary naturalism earned him the nickname "Darwin's bulldog," while his organizational efforts, public lectures, and writing helped elevate the place of science in modern society. "His views on evolution and man's newly conceived place in the universe had a profound impact on 19th-century thought" (Drabble, 488). With frontispiece illustration of a series of primate skeletons and in-text illustrations throughout.
