We know Charles Darwin as a great scientist, but would he have become one if he did not love life and all living things around him? If he was not fascinated by the habits of his dogs, did not admire the plumage of peacocks, did not study the sexual life of mollusks? We all have an innate tendency to seek connections with nature and other forms of life, but for Darwin, this inclination turned out to be remarkably strong. Kay Harrel's book is not just a biography of a scientist with a retelling of his scientific ideas, but an insightful exploration of how Darwin's love for life and all living things, or scientifically biophilia, shaped him. This book is about the unexpected Darwin: an ordinary person, a family man, an ardent naturalist, whose love, joy, and curiosity led to outstanding discoveries.
"The book allows us to look at Darwin from an unfamiliar perspective, to appreciate him as a person passionately devoted to his research, in love with nature, in all its diverse manifestations." - Mikhail Kasatkin, Senior Researcher at the K.A. Timiryazev State Biological Museum.
"A deep and emotional book." - Jillian Beer, author of 'Darwin's Plots'.
