In this library of natural inquiry, the works of Charles Darwin are read in full, that the patient listener may accompany him across seas, gardens, islands, and fields of observation. From the voyage of the Beagle to the intricate contrivances of orchids, from the descent of man to the humble labour of worms, these volumes reveal a world not fixed and silent, but ever changing, connected, and wonderfully adapted.Public domain 博物学 科学 自然・生態学

The contrasting motions of nodding and shaking the head as signs of affirmation and negation are likewise examined, showing both variation and underlying common origins linked to early movements in infancy.
