Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation: With a Sequel - Robert Chambers - Bog

A landmark work of 19th-century science, Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation was one of the first books to present a comprehensive theory of evolution to a popular audience. Drawing on the latest scientific discoveries and his own observations, Chambers argued that the cosmos and all life on Earth had evolved over time through natural processes. This edition also includes Chambers' sequel, Explanations: A Sequel to the Vestiges, which addressed criticisms of the original work and presented further evidence for evolution.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
