“Herbert's book is first rate. The introduction more than adequately prepares students for the superbly-chosen documents that follow.”-- James J. Sack, University of Illinois at Chicago“I like how the author has presented natural history as international endeavor and how she shows the personal connections among the authors represented in the volume's documents.”-- Shirley Roe, University of Connecticut“Herbert's volume covers a great deal of terrain with grace and clarity, and overall strikes a fine balance between introducing material for first-time readers and pointing toward next-level questions for reflection. It flows together beautifully, is written in a scholarly yet somewhat conversational tone that students will greatly appreciate, and the scholarship is exemplary.”-- Katherine Pandora, University of Oklahoma“A good and useful volume for courses that spend a week or two on Darwin and the origins of evolutionary biology.”-- Robert Friedel, University of Maryland
