Description: I have here for sale a book entitled THE WORLD OF LIFE A Manifestation of Creative Power, Directive Mind and Ultimate Purpose by Alfred Russel Wallace published by Chapman and Hall, Limited, London in 1911. Third Edition. In this book Wallace has attempted to summarise and complete his thoughts and work on the Darwinian theory of evolution. He has extended the scope and application of the theory and has shown that it is capable of explaining many of the phenomena of living things, previously thought to be beyond its range.

Marks on the boards with wear and fraying to the top, bottom and along the hinges of the spine. Gilt top page edge. Foxing and browning to endpapers and a few pages. Tear to margins of pages 95/96.
