Summary From So Simple a Beginning has been designed to present Darwin's original work exactly as written, yet made as vivid and accessible as possible. The illustrations have been cleaned and matched more closely to the originals than as seen in other reproductions, in order to have the same appearance as at the time of the first-edition publications. Darwin's original indexes have been supplemented by Wilson with another index that includes the many modern concepts and terms foreshadowed in Darwin's contributions.
