Beskrivelse

In this book Cannon Schmitt shows how Darwin and other Victorian naturalists transformed their encounters with the South American continent and its indigenous peoples into influential accounts of biological change, race, and the origins of humanity. His observations open a new discussion concerning the cultural meanings of evolutionary theory in the Victorian period.
