Originally published in 1844, Vestiges sparked one of the great intellectual controversies of the century. Integrating research in anthropology, geology, astronony, biology, economics, and chemistry, it was the first attempt to connect the natural sciences into a history of creation. The author, whose identity was not revealed until 1884, was Robert Chambers (1802-71), a leading Scottish writer and publisher. Vestiges reached a huge popular audience in Europe and America and was widely read by the social and intellectual elite. It fostered debate about natural law, setting the stage for the controversy over Darwin's Origin. In response to criticism, Chambers published Explanations: A Sequel, which offered a reasoned defense of his ideas about progressive development, castigating what he saw as the narrowness of specialist science. This volume, which also includes Chambers's earliest cosmological writings, a bibliography of reviews, and a comprehensive new index, illuminates the changing meanings of science and religion in the Victorian era and the rise of secular ideologies in Western culture. -- from back cover.

Excerpt from Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation: With a Sequel It is, in t e first place, remarkable, that the planets all move nearly in one plane, corresponding with the centre of the sun's bod N ext, it is not less remarkable, that the motion of t e sun on its axis, those of the planets around the sun, and the satellites around their primaries, ' and the motions of all on their axis, are in one direction - namely, from west to east. Had all these matters been left to accident, the chances against the uniformity which we find would have been, though calculable, inconceiva bly greet Laplace states them at four millions of millions to one It is thus powerfully impressed on na, that the uniformity of the motions, as well as their general adjust ment to one plane, must have been a consequence of some cause acting throughout the whole system.

A landmark work of 19th-century science, Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation was one of the first books to present a comprehensive theory of evolution to a popular audience. Drawing on the latest scientific discoveries and his own observations, Chambers argued that the cosmos and all life on Earth had evolved over time through natural processes. This edition also includes Chambers' sequel, Explanations: A Sequel to the Vestiges, which addressed criticisms of the original work and presented further evidence for evolution.
