Description

Basic Books, 1997-09-22. Hardcover. Like New. 9x6x1. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Clean, unmarked pages. <br> "Thomas Henry Huxley was one of the first adherents to Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, and did more than anyone else to advance its acceptance among scientists and the public alike. Huxley was a passionate defender of Darwin's theory -- so passionate that he has been called 'Darwin's Bulldog'. But Huxley was not only the bulldog for Darwin's theory, but was a great biologist in his own right, who did original research in zoology and paleontology. Nor did he slavishly and uncritically swallow Darwin's theory; he criticized several aspects of it, pointing out a number of problems." - University of California Berkeley
