Before publication in 1879, it was shortened by 16%, with several of the cuts directed at its most provocative parts. The cutter, with Charles's permission, was his daughter Henrietta - an example of the strong hidden hand of meek-seeming Victorian women. Originally published in 2003, this first unabridged edition, edited by Desmond King-Hele, includes all that Charles originally intended, the cuts being restored and printed in italics. Erasmus Darwin was one of the leading intellectuals of the eighteenth century. He was a respected physician, a well-known poet, a keen mechanical inventor, and a founding member of the influential Lunar Society. He also possessed an amazing insight into the many branches of physical and biological science. Most notably, he adopted what we now call biological evolution as his theory of life, 65 years prior to Charles Darwin's Origin of Species.NaturalistsEnglandBiographyPhysiciansEnglandBiographyNaturalistsPhysicians508/.092Darwin Charles1809-1882,46083King-Hele Desmond1927-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910449801103321The life of Erasmus Darwin2473302UNINA01798oam 2200481zu 450 991083019710332120210807004631.01-118-66830-8(CKB)3450000000004165(SSID)ssj0000904744(PQKBManifestationID)11511243(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000904744(PQKBWorkID)10924490(PQKB)10015922(NjHacI)993450000000004165(PPN)189076143(EXLCZ)99345000000000416520160829d1991 uy engur|||||||||||txtccrCordilleran Volcanism, Plutonism, and Magma Generation at Various Crustal Levels, Montana and Idaho Western Montana and Central Idaho, Field Trip T337[Place of publication not identified]American Geophysical Union19911 online resource (43 pages) illustrationsField trip guidebook (International Geological Congress (28th : 1989 : Washington, D.C.)) ;T337Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-87590-597-8 Field trip guidebook (International Geological Congress (28th : 1989 : Washington, D.C.)) ;T337.Geology IdahoGuidebooksGeology MontanaGuidebooksGeology Geology 550Hyndman959262Rutland CarolynHardyman Richard F.PQKBBOOK9910830197103321Cordilleran Volcanism, Plutonism, and Magma Generation at Various Crustal Levels, Montana and Idaho Western Montana and Central Idaho, Field Trip T3372173546UNINA
