About the author

Charles Darwin

Charles Darwin

1809–1882

A curious naturalist whose voyage on the HMS Beagle helped change how the world understands life on Earth, he became one of the most influential scientific writers of the 19th century. His clear, patient way of building an argument still makes his work remarkably readable today.
