(LARGE PRINT EDITION) 1878. A volume by Darwin the British naturalist who became famous for his theories of evolution and natural selection. After the publication of Origin of the Species, Darwin continued to write and publish books on Biology. Darwin writes in his autobiography about The Effects of Cross and Self Fertilization in the Vegetable Kingdom that: the results there arrived at explain, as I believe, the endless and wonderful contrivances for the transportal of pollen from one plant to another of the same species. I now believe, however, chiefly from the observations of Hermann Muller, that I ought to have insisted more strongly than I did on the many adaptations for self-fertilization; though I was well aware of many such adaptations.

Autorenporträt
Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882) was born in Shropshire, England. His first text chronicling his five-year voyage on the HMS Beagle, which included his notable visit to the Galapagos Islands, earned him success as an author in 1839. His observations from the Galapagos, alongside an interest in natural history from an early age and studies over the consequent years, informed the development of his biological theories, culminating the ground-breaking text 'On the Origin of Species' for which he is best known.
