The emotional charge of any evolutionist introducing the book by the founder of the Theory of Evolution, The Origin of Species, by Charles Darwin, is self-evident. This book is not simply a treatise of its time that shook established views, but an original and unprecedented attempt in the annals of scientific thought. It condenses centuries of observation, the utilization of contemporary knowledge of that era, and the transformation of this into a structured theory, which changed our perspectives "on life." Undoubtedly, The Origin of Species is a foundational monolith upon which the edifice of our biological and philosophical self-awareness is continuously built.
