Inhaltsangabe

The acclaimed two-volume biography of Huxley comes in one-volume and in paperback for the first time. 'Among historians of 19th-century British science, Adrian Desmond reigns as the current master of studies in a social context as a necessary matrix of all intellectual innovation ... In completing his two volume biography of T. H. Huxley ... Desmond has beautifully consummated the marriage of his unique skills with their ideal subject' Stephen Jay Gould, The Times 'Nobody writes scientific biography like Adrian Desmond, and this account of Huxley's progress, from Ealing, via evolution, to Eastbourne, is his best so far' Roy Porter, Times Literary Supplement
