Penguin presents the audiobook edition of On The Orign of Species by Sabina Radeva, read by Roy McMillan.

This accessible audiobook edition of Charles Darwin's On The Origin of Species brings evolution to the younger generation with exciting narration and a magical soundscape.

On The Origin of Species has been the definitive explanation of the theory of evolution since it was first published in 1859. Now molecular biologist and illustrator Sabina Radeva unites her two passions to create a 64-page retelling of this seminal text.

Pulling together Darwin's observations from his travels around the world and his groundbreaking - and controversial - explanation of how species form, develop and change over hundreds of thousands of years, On The Origin of Species is as relevant and important now as it ever was.

Sabina Radeva is a graphic designer and illustrator based in London, England. In 2008 she graduated from the Molecular Biology M.Sc. programs at Max Planck Institute, Germany. In 2009 she left science for a creative career, and has since studied as an illustrator. Sabina is passionate about projects that blend science with art. She is the mother of two little girls that are her source of daily inspiration. Beautifully illustrated, her retelling of On the Origin of Species was an immediate sensation around the world when launched on Kickstarter - and it is now her first published book!

Reviews

Vibrantly illustrated ... a beautiful, accessible volume, a must for primary schools, libraries and beyond. An entrancing picture-book retelling of Darwin's on the Origin of Species ... filled with informative, beautifully designed diagrams and maps. Sabina's love of science and illustration combine wonderfully in this undeniably beautiful book, distilling Darwin's study down and then conveying it with complete clarity and obvious delight. A great introduction to one of the most important books ever written. Evolution explained, in this strikingly accessible picture book...perfect for a younger audience Sabina Radeva's book is a wonderful introduction to Charles Darwin's ideas. It will appeal to children, but also, by its deft handling of a number of common misconceptions, may well surprise many adults. She has not shied away from either historical language or scientific ideas and handles both with great charm and without oversimplification. A triumph of concision that appeals both to the budding young scientist and to the adult who has given up hope of ever reading Darwin in the original Expand reviews
