On the Origin of Species
or the preservation of favoured races in the struggle for life
Samenvatting
Charles Darwin's seminal formulation of the theory of evolution, On the Origin of Species, continues to be as controversial today as when it was first published.
On the Origin of Species is instantly and persistently controversial, the concept of natural selection transformed scientific analysis about all life on Earth. Before the Origin of Species , accepted thinking held that life was the static and perfect creation of God. By a single, systematic argument Darwin called this view into question. His ideas have affected public perception of everything from religion to economics.
Charles Darwin (1809-82), a Victorian scientist and naturalist, has become one of the most famous figures of science to date. The advent of On the Origin of Species by means of natural selection in 1859 challenged and contradicted all contemporary biological and religious beliefs.
