Description: Charles Darwin was an English naturalist, eminent as a collector and geologist, who proposed and provided scientific evidence that all species of life have evolved over time from common ancestors through the process of natural selection. Darwin’s discovery remains the foundation of biology, as it provides a unifying logical explanation for the diversity of life.

Francis Darwin) Volume 1 and Volume 2 On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life Introduction When on board H.M.S. Beagle, as naturalist, I was much struck with certain facts in the distribution of the organic beings inhabiting South America, and in the geological relations of the present to the past inhabitants of that continent. These facts, as will be seen in the latter chapters of this volume, seemed to throw some light on the origin of species--that mystery of mysteries, as it has been called by one of our greatest philosophers. On my return home, it occurred to me, in 1837, that something might perhaps be made out on this question by patiently accumulating and reflecting on all sorts of facts which could possibly have any bearing on it. ...
