Reviews
There's an extraordinary sense of how persistent and vigorous Darwin's scientific thought was, and of what an unusually loving and involved parent and husband he was...Great for young readers to watch scientific work as a personal project., Praise for CHARLES AND EMMA: "Heiligman's writing is so good-so rooted in particulars of time, place and Darwin's scientific thought, yet so light and full of drama-that readers will care about Charles and Emma and their love story. The debate between science and religion continues,today, but the relationship of Charles and Emma Darwin demonstrates that science and religion are not incompatible."--Bookpage "This is the "wow" biography on the Darwins - meticulously researched, richly rendered and rewarding every step of the way."--San Francisco Chronicle "Heiligman conveys the social order of the day, the comfort religion provided and even, yes, the evolution of Darwin's thoughts."-The Washington Post Book World "There's an extraordinary sense of how persistent and vigorous Darwin's scientific thought was, and of what an unusually loving and involved parent and husband he was...Great for young readers to watch scientific work as a personal project"-The Chicago Tribune "Allows readers not only to understand Darwin's ideas, but to appreciate how Emma's responses tempered them." -Publishers Weekly, starred review "Heiligman has created a unique, flowing, and meticulously researched picture of the controversial scientist and the effect of his marriage on his life and work." -School Library Journal, starred review "Here is a timely, relevant book that works on several levels: as a history of science, as a biography, and, last but not least, as a romance." -Horn Book, starred review "This intersection between religion and science is where the book shines, but it is also an excellent portrait of what life was like during the Victorian era, a time when illness and death were ever present, and, in a way, a real-time example of the survival of the fittest."-Booklist, starred review "Come for the science, stay for the love story"-BCCB,starred review "This rich, insightful portrait of Charles and Emma Darwin's marriage explores a dimension of the naturalist's life that has heretofore been largely ignored...readers wanting to know more will discover two brilliant thinkers whose marital dialectic will provide rich fodder for discussions of science and faith."-Kirkus Reviews "A unique blend of romance, scientific observations, explanations of medical practices prevalent in the earlynineteenth century, and opportunities to examine scientific discoveries and religious beliefs in detail." -VOYA(Voice of Youth Advocates) "The conflicts between science and religion are daunting subjects, but Deborah Heiligman's beautiful bookCharles and Emmaunravels all the complexity through the lives of two remarkable people. At its heart, "Charles and Emma" is a love story-but it is amazing how much you learn by the time you finish. I enjoyed every page." -Professor Ari L.
