Asa Gray, the leading American botanist and Charles Darwin’s most important ally in the United States, collects his essays and reviews on natural selection. He sets Darwin’s view of species against that of his Harvard colleague Louis Agassiz, weighs the objections fairly, and argues at length that evolution and a belief in design in nature are not enemies.
An essential document of the Darwinian debate in America, still lucid on science and faith. Download the free EPUB.
