"The Movements and Habits of Climbing Plants" is a book written by Charles Darwin. Originally published in 1875, it is a botanical work in which Darwin explores the behavior and adaptations of various climbing plants. This book is considered one of Darwin's later works, following his groundbreaking "On the Origin of Species." In "The Movements and Habits of Climbing Plants," Darwin investigates how certain plants exhibit climbing behaviors, the mechanisms they employ, and the advantages of climbing in their natural environments. He explores topics such as the role of twining, the movement of tendrils, and the ability of plants to adapt and reach for support in their surroundings. Darwin's observations and experiments in this book contribute to the broader understanding of plant biology and adaptation. While not as widely known as some of his other works, it reflects Darwin's meticulous approach to scientific inquiry and his curiosity about the natural world.

Charles Darwin, né le 12 février 1809 à Shrewsbury dans le Shropshire et mort le 19 avril 1882 à Downe dans le Kent, est un naturaliste et paléontologue anglais dont les travaux sur l'évolution des espèces vivantes ont révolutionné la biologie avec son ouvrage L'Origine des espèces paru en 1859. Célèbre au sein de la communauté scientifique de son époque pour son travail sur le terrain et ses recherches en géologie, il a adopté l'hypothèse émise 50 ans auparavant par le Français Jean-Baptiste de Lamarck selon laquelle toutes les espèces vivantes ont évolué au cours du temps à partir d'un seul ou quelques ancêtres communs et il a soutenu avec Alfred Wallace que cette évolution était due au processus dit de la « sélection naturelle ».
