Industry Reviews
"This book works because [Darwin's] own words paint an unexpectedly complete and truthful picture of the man (brilliance, wit, sickness), his times--and limitations."---Liz Else, New Scientist
"[Browne's] book delves into the mind of Darwin, revealing his insights, humor, and understanding of the world as he knew it. Darwin's words never get old, and Browne's treatment of his wisdom does not disappoint. Her book is a must for any dedicated student of Charles Darwin, and the novice reader alike."---Howard O. Clark, Jr., Sonoran Herpetologist
"The Quotable Darwin is fascinating, funny, and humanizing. It brings an icon to life."---Glenn Dallas, San Fransisco Book Review
"The selection of quotes from Darwin's books and his letters are grouped into chapters with headings that are expected, such as Species or Survival of the Fittest, and less expected, such as one of my favourites, Barnacles." * The Australian *
"Fans of Janet Browne's epic two-volume biography of Charles Darwin will not want to miss her new book, The Quotable Darwin, which features a broad selection of Darwin's personal and professional observations on life, liberty, and of course science."---John Farrell, Forbes.com,
