Charles Darwin, a British naturalist, geologist, biologist, and author, revolutionized the science of biology by developing the theory of evolution by natural selection. Among his important works are On the Origin of Species and The Descent of Man. A journal that he kept during a five-year journey on the HMS Beagle eventually was published as The Voyage of the Beagle. A highly respected and enthusiastic audiobook narrator, David Case specialized in creating unique and interesting character voices. AudioFile magazine named him a Golden Voice, writing after he died in 2005 that "David's cultured British voice, his flair for accents and dialects, and his comedic timing made him one of the industry's most sought-after narrators." He narrated over 700 audiobooks. In one of his last interviews, David said, "I really believe I was born to record audiobooks." Fans everywhere tend to agree.
The classic that exploded into public controversy, revolutionized the course of science, and continues to transform our views of the world.
The famous classic on evolution that revolutionized the course of science. Darwin's theory that species derive from other species by a gradual evolutionary process and that the average age level of each species is heightened by the "survival of the fittest" stirred popular debate of his time to a fever pitch. "Next to the Bible, no work has been quite as influential."--Ashley Montagu.
现代西方学者做进化论方面的研究与著述,通常引用的是第一版《物种源始》,基本上这一版已经成为“标准本”;我们阅读近几十年出版的进化论研究的译著,不难发现这一点。 遗憾的是,长久以来《物种源始》却没有第一版的中译本面世;近百年来出版的中译本都是根据第六版翻译的。...
评分最初接到《物种起源》的编辑任务时,心中不是没有疑问的:“这本毫无新鲜感的‘老书’,国内有那么多译本,还有必要重新出版吗?”当获悉该书是我们的副社长和其他编辑人员几经周折,终于请到著名的古生物学家苗德岁执笔翻译时,我的疑问更是加深了。然而在经过一系列编...
评分1895年北洋水师学堂总办严复发表<原强>,达尔文进化论自此传入中国。该文首创 “物竞天择”一词,流传中又加上“适者生存”,共八字,成为进化论在汉语语境中的基本定义。三年后再作<天演论>,举国震动。 <天演论>号称译作,但显然背离了原著。原作者为英国生物学家赫胥黎,以...
评分长句子翻译的非常晦涩,而且不符合中国人的阅读习惯,完全是按英文从句套从句的句式来翻。总之很多分析类的句子,你读十遍也未必能理解含义。只有叙述性的句子比较好理解。文字上别说生动,就连顺畅都难以达到。 这并非内容专业深浅的问题,而是中文翻译的能力...
评分转载《中国科学报》 (2013-11-29 第14版 读书) 作者:洪蔚 近日,译林出版社“译林人文精选”丛书推出《物种起源》新的中文译本。该译本与时下通行的《物种起源》中译本最大的不同之处,在于版本的选择。 在1859年至1872年间,《物种起源》一书总共出了六版。其中第一版与...
