Essays on Evolution: 1889-1907 is a collection of essays written by Edward Bagnall Poulton, a prominent British zoologist and evolutionary biologist. The book is divided into two parts: the first part contains essays that were published between 1889 and 1896, while the second part contains essays published between 1897 and 1907. The essays cover a wide range of topics related to evolution, including the role of natural selection in shaping the characteristics of animals, the evolution of mimicry and camouflage, and the genetics of inheritance. Poulton also discusses the work of other prominent evolutionary biologists, such as Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace, and provides his own insights and criticisms of their theories.Throughout the book, Poulton emphasizes the importance of empirical evidence in understanding evolution and highlights the need for continued research in the field. He also explores the ethical implications of evolutionary theory, particularly in relation to human society and the treatment of animals.Overall, Essays on Evolution: 1889-1907 provides a comprehensive overview of the state of evolutionary biology in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as well as a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of its most influential thinkers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
