Science Magazine blog: Origins a history of beginnings

Origins has compiled videos of its sessions on Darwin (bicentennial of Charles Darwin’s birth—and the 150th anniversary of the publication of On the Origin of Species), which typically start with a reading from Darwin’s correspondence. You can watch the videos directly here on the embedded media player, even skipping among the talks, or go to where they are posted here on YouTube. Some of the categories included on this blog are about Darwin, Evolution & Culture, and the Science of Origins.
