«Origen de las especies» is the scientific treatise by Charles Darwin, published by Ediciones Akal, S.A. in paperback (608 pages, in Spanish).
Charles Darwin argues that species descend from common ancestors and that their diversity is explained by natural selection: the best-adapted individuals survive and pass on their traits. The work brings together observations of nature, the fossil record and animal breeding to support this theory, which transformed biology.
Volume 14 of Akal's Básica de Bolsillo collection. This edition reproduces the text of the first Spanish translation authorised by Darwin.
For readers interested in biology, the history of science and evolutionary thought.
Charles Robert Darwin was an English naturalist, geologist, and biologist, widely known for his contributions to evolutionary biology. His proposition that all species of life have descended from a common ancestor is now generally accepted and considered a fundamental scientific concept. In a joint presentation with Alfred Russel Wallace, he introduced his scientific theory that this branching pattern of evolution resulted from a process he called natural selection, in which the struggle for existence has a similar effect to the artificial selection involved in selective breeding. Darwin has been described as one of the most influential figures in human history and was honoured by burial in Westminster Abbey.
