About the author

Thomas Henry Huxley

1825–1895

A fierce defender of Charles Darwin’s ideas, this Victorian biologist helped bring evolution into public debate and became one of the most influential science writers of his age. His essays combine sharp argument, clarity, and a strong belief that science should shape modern thought.
