Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book takes readers on a humorous journey through the lens of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. The author playfully applies Darwin's principles to human society, examining the behaviours and characteristics of various individuals as if they were distinct species evolving and adapting to their environments. Set against the backdrop of Victorian England, the book satirizes social classes, political figures, and even the scientific community itself. Through witty observations and whimsical illustrations, the author explores themes of power, greed, and the absurdity of human nature. From the pompous "Cock-a-doodle-doo" to the sluggish "Slow and Sure," each character represents a different facet of society, highlighting the often-ridiculous ways in which people behave. The book's clever use of animal metaphors and evolutionary concepts provides a unique and entertaining perspective on the human condition, ultimately suggesting that while we may have evolved physically, our social behaviours and motivations remain as primal as ever. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780243452460_0
