Huxley Julian Boeken

    22 juni 1887 – 14 februari 1975

    Julian Huxley was een vooraanstaand Brits bioloog en denker, wiens werk diep inging op evolutie en seculier humanisme. Met een achtergrond in de academische wereld en als de eerste Directeur-Generaal van UNESCO, bepleitte Huxley de popularisering van wetenschap via diverse platforms, van boeken en artikelen tot radio en televisie. Zijn brede interesses omvatten onderwerpen als genetica, zoölogie en de toekomst van de mensheid, wat hem tot een invloedrijke figuur maakte in het wetenschappelijke en intellectuele landschap van zijn tijd. Huxley's nalatenschap leeft voort in zijn pogingen om wetenschappelijk inzicht te verbinden met menselijke vooruitgang en begrip.

      Discover this beautiful special edition of Charles Darwin’s groundbreaking theory on human evolution. When the eminent naturalist Charles Darwin returned from South America on board the HMS Beagle in 1836, he brought with him the notes and evidence that would form the basis of a world-changing theory: the evolution of species by a process of natural selection. This theory, published as On the Origin of Species in 1859, is the basis of modern biology and the concept of biodiversity. Its publication sparked a fierce scientific, religious and philosophical debate, which continues to this day. PATTERNS OF LIFE: SPECIAL EDITIONS OF GROUNDBREAKING SCIENCE BOOKS
