Ever Since Darwin is a 1977 book by the
paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould.[1] Gould's first book of collected essays, it originated from his monthly column "This View of Life," published in Natural History magazine.[2] Edwin Barber—who was then the editorial director for W. W. Norton & Company— encouraged Gould to produce a book. He soon commissioned Gould to write The Mismeasure of Man
, but it was not until three years later, when Gould accumulated 33 columns, that it occurred to either of them that the Natural History columns should be published in a single volume. The collection of essays, written between 1973–1977, became a best-seller and propelled Gould to national prominence.
