About the author

Charles Darwin

Charles Darwin

1809–1882

A curious observer of nature, he changed how people understand life on Earth by developing the theory of evolution through natural selection. His travels, careful note-taking, and patient years of study helped make On the Origin of Species one of the most influential books in science.
