Zoönomia

Zoönomia (also known as The Laws of Organic Life) was a two-part written work by Erasmus Darwin exploring the realms of pathology, psychology, anatomy and the way that the human body functions. Within this book, Erasmus started to present ideas that would eventually be developed by his grandson, Charles Darwin, to become the theory of evolution by natural selection.
