5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful without bias, April 25, 1999
By A Customer
Robert Jastrow does a wonderful job of explaining the various theories and mindsets of Charles Darwin without pressing any bias in the mix. Robert, if you read this, thank you once again for another outstanding read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Complete, Informative, but Biased, May 30, 2006
This offers great selections from various works of Darwin, including some that are hard to find. I found it invaluable for my research paper, although it is clearly biased in favor of Darwin (for instance, Darwin "discovered the _fact_ of evolution".) However, it is still a good source, and the commentary helps to elucidate some of the more confusing portions of the text.
