Darwin has become an almost mythological figure in the emergence of modern culture; yet he was by no means the first person to publish evolutionary ideas and his theory of natural selection was not generally accepted by his contemporaries. The publication of the Origin of Species excited much debate and controversy, at once challenging the very foundations of Christian belief, and yet appearing to underpin the Victorian concept of progress and the ability of science to explore areas of knowledge hitherto obscured by religious dogma. Today Darwin's achievements still evoke powerful and contradictory responses. Peter Bowler's study of Darwin's life and influence combines biography and cultural history. He sets out to disentangle the complex motivations that have led people to their various evaluations of Darwin the scientist and Darwinian theory. He shows how Darwin's contemporaries were unable to appreciate precisely those aspects of his thinking we consider of importance today. Darwin was a product of his time, but he also transcended it, by creating an idea capable of being exploited by twentieth~century scientists and intellectuals who had very different values from his own.

Julia Barrow's translation does full justice to the style and verve of the original. Jacques Le Goff has written a book which will not only be read by generations of students and historians, but which will delight and inform all those interested in the history of medieval Europe. Part One, 'Historical Evolution', is a narrative account of the entire period, from the barbarian settlement of Roman Europe in the fifth, sixth and seventh centuries to the war~torn crises of Christian Europe in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Part Two, 'Medieval Civilization: is analytical, concerned with the origins of early medieval ideas of culture and religion, the constraints of time and space in a pre~industrial world and the Christianization of society. It concludes with a vivid reconstruction of the lives and sensibilities of the people during this long period. 'The richness, imaginativeness and sheer learning of Le Goffs work cannot be summarized and demand to be experienced ~ M. T. Clanchy, Times Literary Supplement. 'What is undeniable about Le Goff's work, and about the work of French historians of his generation, is the sheer intellectual curiosity, the passion to understand the past and to bring it back to life. In some recent historians, the method degenerates into mannerism and self~parody, but Le Goff seems free of this. The result is that, in this compromise between "general history" and the Annales method he has produced a rich portrait of the medieval world? ~Godfrey Hodgson, The Independent. 'Le Goffs learning is extensive and admirable .[he] has taken the whole of western Europe as a temporal sequence and he has asked what are the conceptual schemes which give it coherence. It is the structuralist scheme which makes this book stimulating and impressive. It was high time that it should be translated into English. ~ Douglas Johnson, The Observer.
