Greenwood Publishing Group : All Things Darwin

Reviews:

-"Darwin scholar Patrick Armstrong provides an intriguing view of a scientific mind at work, and an excellent tool for understanding the pioneering concepts in evolutionary theory. This guide will serve interested readers from high school to adult." —Lawrence Looks at Books

-"[U]nique in that it is a reference work devoted to Darwin, his life, and his times. An excellent source to understand the impact of Darwin's work." —Booklist

-"All Things Darwin, with its list of disparate places, ideas, and people, serves to remind us how profoundly unifying Darwin's mind was and how broad the materials on which he drew....as the Darwin bicentenary approaches, this encyclopedia will be a valuable resource for those seeking to understand the place in his life of peppered moths, coral, or Karl Marx." —Times Literary Supplement

-"[N]ot only about the man but also about his work and its far reaching effects. The almost 200 cross-referenced entries are arranged in alphabetical order from 'Anemones, Sea' to 'Zoology of the Voyage of the Beagle.' Front matter includes an alphabetical entry list, a thematic guide, and a Darwin family tree....[U]seful additions for libraries building their science collections in anticipation of the 2009 bicentennial of Darwin's birth. (Reviewed with Evolution: A Historical Perspective)" —School Library Journal

-"[T]his new two-volume work provides a perspective as different as it is excellent, striving to reveal Darwin as he was by way of more than 180 entries in an encyclopedic format; entries begin with Anemones, Sea and end with Zoology of the Voyage of the Beagle. References and photographs taken by the author accompany many of these entries. In this way, Armstrong reveals something of Darwin's relations with others, including other scientists; his travels and discoveries; his research; and his world....Bibliography and index complete a work whose conception and execution is admirable. An excellent reference work. Essential. All Libraries." —Choice
