Summary

Victorian England has stagnated and the pace of progress would embarrass a limping snail. Why, though, did history come adrift? Was it Sir Arthur Nightingale's dismal book about natural selection? Or was it the response by Charles Darwin? Either way, it's no easy task to change history. Can the God of Evolution come to humanity's aid?
