Features: This series aims to be a guide in the vast ocean of knowledge, leading us through the most important fields of natural science and technology research; the writing is easy to understand, focusing on fundamental and key knowledge and theories, and deliberately omitting complex details throughout. The series is written by outstanding popular science writers who are dedicated to explaining complex and profound scientific content in an accessible manner every day. Evolution is a crucial cornerstone of the edifice of natural science. However, before it was widely accepted, it faced fierce struggles. Nevertheless, it ultimately replaced the "theory of divine creation" in the central position of the evolution of diverse life forms. This book vividly describes Darwin's famous "Beagle" voyage, gradually determining that it is the reproduction, cooperation, and competition between species that enable the diversity of life forms.
