The book that forever changed how we see life on Earth.

First published in 1859, On the Origin of Species by Charles Darwin introduced the theory of evolution by natural selection, transforming biology, science, and our understanding of the natural world.

Drawing on years of meticulous research and observations from his voyage on the HMS Beagle, Darwin revealed how species adapt, survive, and evolve over time. With clear arguments and abundant evidence, he challenged conventional beliefs and laid the foundation for modern biology.

Far more than a scientific text, this book is a milestone in human thought—an exploration of life's diversity and the forces that shape it. Its influence extends beyond science, touching philosophy, religion, and culture, making it one of the most important works ever written.

Today, On the Origin of Species remains essential reading for anyone interested in science, history, or the profound story of life itself.
