Quotes

...I had figured out why Darwin's arguments were so hard to follow," said Reznick, a professor of biology at the University of California Riverside. "His Victorian prose is a small part of the problem. The bigger part is that the book is rooted in the knowledge of science in 1859, which is quite different from today. To understand the book, it helps a great deal to understand the context in which the book was written and the audience that Darwin was addressing."
