      En 2009, celébrase o II Centenario do nacemento de Charles Darwin. Con tal motivo, publicamos esta orixinal obra, na que o grumete do Beagle nos conta, en primeira persoa, as circunstancias e peripeicas dunha travesía histórica. Con tan só 10 anos, James Kincaid é un asistente do naturalista Charles Darwin no Beagle. A vida dun grumete metido a explorador nunca é aburrida, cousa que aprenderá James ao axudar a Darwin na recollida de mostras polo continente suramericano. Entre perigosos mares, terremotos devastadores e volcáns en erupción, o Beagle seguirá navegando, percorrendo baías, calas e illas... O dirario de James relata a apaixonante viaxe que derivou nunha das obras científicas máis innovadoras da Historia. Nel, un mozo participa dos pensamentos e ideas dun dos maiores científicos do mundo, ademais de relatar emocionantes aventuras de ultramar. Un capítulo ilustrado de referencias e datos ofrece información adicional sobre os descubrimentos e teorías de Darwin, e sobre o mundo científico do século XIX.

    • Vor 200 Jahren wurde Charles Darwin geboren, vor 150 Jahren veröffentlichte er sein Epochenwerk „The Origin of Species“. Sechs Jahre lang umsegelte der Naturforscher die Erde, sammelte Tiere, Pflanzen und Gestein. Dann die überraschende Erkenntnis: Die Welt ist nicht nach einem großen Plan erschaffen, sondern Tiere und Pflanzen passen sich ihrer Umwelt immer wieder an. Der Grundstein für die Evolutionstheorie war gelegt.
