Beagle</em> sob o comando do capitão Robert FitzRoy que convidou o recentemente licenciado Charles Darwin com 22 anos e desejoso de conhecer os trópicos antes de se tornar pastor.</p>_x000d_<p>A expedição atravessou o Oceano Atlântico em rumo às costas do sul da América do Sul onde se realizaram pormenorizados levantamentos hidrográficos regressando pelo Taiti e pela Austrália completando uma circum-navegação à Terra. Era previsto que durasse apenas dois anos mas arrastou-se ao longo de cinco.</p>_x000d_<p>Com esta viagem Darwin consagrou-se como geólogo e colecionador de fósseis de prestígio. Dela resultou a publicação da presente obra e do seu conhecido diário <em>The Voyage of the Beagle</em>. Ambas contribuíram largamente para o seu reconhecimento dentro da comunidade científica. As experiências e descobertas que realizou durante a expedição forneceram a base para as ideias que o levaram à elaboração da sua teoria da evolução por selecção natural.</p>_x000d_<p>Charles Robert Darwin Shrewsbury 1809 Downe 1882 foi um naturalista inglês famoso pela sua teoria da evolução através da seleção natural. Desde cedo demonstrou interesse pela história natural. Depois de se formar em Teologia na Universidade de Cambridge embarcou numa jornada épica a bordo do HMS Beagle onde recolheu uma vasta gama de espécimes e observações que influenciaram profundamente o seu pensamento.<br /><br />Publicou a sua obra muito popular «A Origem das Espécies» em 1859 onde propôs que todas as espécies de seres vivos descendem de ancestrais comuns e que a seleção natural é o mecanismo primário responsável pela evolução das espécies ao longo do tempo. A teoria de Darwin teve um impacto revolucionário não só no campo da biologia mas também nas ciências humanas desafiando conceções prevalecentes sobre a origem e a diversidade da vida na Terra.<br /><br />Além das suas contribuições científicas Darwin era também um escritor e correspondente prolífico. O seu trabalho continua a ser estudado e debatido até aos dias de hoje estabelecendo o seu lugar como um dos pensadores mais influentes da história da ciência.</p>_x000d_<p>Obs.: Esta obra pesa mais de 5 kg.

77716London The Linnean Society 1857. 8vo 22.1 x 14.1 cm. 11 pp. numbered 130-140. Contemporary ruled half calf over marbled boards. Edges speckled red. = A rarely seen contribution by Charles Darwin to studies of the germination of seeds and in particular the effect of their being immersed in or floating on seawater.

Darwin noted that De Candolle posed this question earlier but that it remained unanswered.
