ill., br. Quando pubblica "L'origine delle specie", nel 1859, Charles Darwin sconvolge le più radicate convinzioni sociali e religiose e provoca dibattiti appassionati in tutto il mondo. Oggi, la teoria dell'evoluzione continua a disturbare, perché manda in mille pezzi l'idea di una Natura generosa e previdente e soprattutto rimette in discussione il ruolo che in essa recita l'uomo. Mettetevi comodi nella vostra miglior poltrona e lasciate che Jean-Baptiste De Panafieu vi racconti come Charles Darwin, giovane naturalista curioso che nel 1831 parte per un giro intorno al mondo, ha rivoluzionato il nostro modo di pensare.
