    Extractions: Few Victorians are as well-remembered today as Charles Robert Darwin. Born into a wealthy Shropshire gentry family, Darwin grew up amidst wealth, comfort and country sports. An unimpressive student, Darwin vacillated between the prospect of becoming a country physician, like his father, or a clergyman. The advantage to becoming a country parson, as Darwin saw it, would be the freedom to pursue his growing interest in natural history. However, an unforeseen opportunity precluded Darwin's plan of becoming a clergyman. After his student days in Edinburgh and Cambridge , Darwin's connections in 1831 offered him the opportunity of travelling on a survey ship, H.M.S. Beagle, as the captain's gentleman dining companion and as naturalist. The round-the-world journey lasted almost five years. Darwin spent most of these years investigating the geology and life of the lands he visited, especially South America, the Galapagos islands, and pacific coral reefs. Darwin also read the works of men of science like Alexander von Humboldt and the geologist Charles Lyell . Lyell's new book

    Extractions: Biographical Information Occupation, Sphere of Activity Charles Robert Darwin was born on 9 February, 1809 in Shrewsbury, Shropshire. He abandoned medical studies in after two years in Edinburgh, but not before friends interested him in geology, in marine wildlife, and in Lamarckian evolutionary zoology. He trained half-heartedly for Anglican ordination in Christ's College, Cambridge, taking a poor degree in , but other friends had by then helped him set his professional sights on geology and natural history, one of them even arranging a volunteer naturalist's berth for him on the Admiralty survey vessel HMS Beagle. Darwin's five years aboard that ship, exploring the Pacific coast of South America, shaped his critical sense that species were a natural record of change, not stasis. He developed the twin notions of geological and biological mutability for which he is famous over the rest of his life. He wrote prolifically from his study in a quiet London suburb, being debarred from a conventional academic life by chronic ill health, possibly due to an infection contracted on his voyage. He died on 19 April, 1882

Darwin was born at The Mount in Shrewsbury , the fifth child of Dr. Robert Waring Darwin and Susannah (eldest daughter of Josiah Wedgwood). He was the grandson of the botanist and poet, Erasmus Darwin . His parents were Unitarians and worshipped at the High Street Unitarian Church where there is a commemorative tablet to Charles, even though he was baptised at St. Chad's Church. He was educated at home initially and then at a day school kept by the Rev. Case at 13 Claremont Hill. In 1818 Charles was sent as a boarder to Shrewsbury School then in the original building at Castle Gates, where conditions for the boys were decidedly austere. The building now houses Shrewsbury Library and has been restored to its Elizabethan splendour. At the front entrance is an imposing statue of Darwin erected in 1897. An interesting account of his schooldays appeared in The life and letters of Charles Darwin (1887) edited by his son, Francis.

In 1828 he entered Cambridge University in the hope of becoming a clergyman. He took his degree in 1831. From December 1831 to October 1836 he sailed in H.M.S. "Beagle" as a naturalist. He visited many places including the Atlantic islands, South American Coast, Tahiti, Australia, New Zealand and other islands. He also visited Brazil. In 1839 he married his cousin and moved in 1842 to Kent which was his home the rest of his life. In 1856 he started to write an explanation of his views but in June 1858 he received a manuscript from Alfred Henry Wallace in which he found a complete abstract of his own theory of natural selection. Wallace's essay and an abstract of Darwin's work was sent to the Linnean Society. The title of the joint communication was "On the Tendency of Species to Form Varieties: and on the Presentation of Varieties and Species by Natural Selection," (July 1, 1858).

    Extractions: Der Umstand, dass ich die Arten nur als stark ausgeprägte und wohl umschriebene Varietäten betrachte, führte mich zu der Voraussetzung, dass die Arten der größeren Gattungen eines Landes öfter Varietäten darbieten würden als die der kleineren; denn wo immer sich viele einander verwandte Arten gebildet haben, sollten sich, als allgemeine Regel, auch viele Varietäten derselben oder beginnenden Arten jetzt bilden, - wie man da, wo viele große Bäume wachsen, viele junge Bäumchen aufkommen zu sehen erwarten darf. Wo viele Arten einer Gattung durch Abänderung entstanden sind, da sind die Umstände günstig für Abänderungen gewesen; und man möchte mithin auch erwarten, sie noch jetzt dafür günstig zu finden. Wenn wir dagegen jede Art als einen besonderen Act der Schöpfung betrachten, so ist kein Grund einzusehen, weshalb verhältnismäßig mehr Varietäten in einer artenreichen Gruppe als in einer solchen mit wenigen Arten vorkommen sollten.

    Extractions: English naturalist who was the grandson of Erasmus Darwin and father of physicist George Darwin . Darwin did poorly in school, and so could not secure employment following his graduation from divinity school. However, he was able to secure a position as ship's naturalist aboard the H. M.S. Beagle. The Beagle A Naturalist's Voyage on the Beagle (1839). Darwin, reflecting on his observation, developed a theory of evolution. According to this theory, individual variability means that some organisms have a slight advantage over others. The advantage will allow the organisms to compete better in the "struggle for existence" and produced more offspring, which will inherit the advantageous qualities. The process whereby favorable traits in the most "fit" animals allow it to survive and reproduce, Darwin called "natural selection." He included the idea of "sexual selection" in his theory, stating that the struggle for possession of females will lead the most vigorous males producing the most progeny. Darwin was probably influenced in his formulation of evolution by the Uniformitarian views expressed in Lyell's Principles of Geology

    Extractions: Devil's Dictionary of Evolution (From: Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, 1910-1911) DARWIN, CHARLES ROBERT (1809-1882), English naturalist, author of the Origin of Species , was born at Shrewsbury on the 12th of February 1809. He was the younger of the two sons and the fourth child of Dr Robert Waring Darwin, son of Dr Erasmus Darwin (q.v.). His mother, a daughter of Josiah Wedgwood (1730- 1795), died when Charles Darwin was eight- years old. Charles Darwin's elder brother, Erasmus Alvey (1804-1881), was interested in literature and art rather than science: on the subject of the wide difference between the brothers Charles wrote that he was "inclined to agree with Francis Galton in believing that education and environment produce only a small effect on the mind of anyone, and that most of our qualities are innate" ( Life and Letters , London, 1887, p. 22). Darwin considered that his own success was chiefly due to "the love of science, unbounded patience in long reflecting over any subject, industry in observing and collecting facts, and a fair share of invention as well as of common sense" (

    Extractions: Charles Darwin, a naturalist, developed the theory of natural selection . He was born in Shrewsbury, England on Feb. 12, 1809. His father was also a naturalist and a physician. His mother died when he was eight. Darwin was the first of the evolutionary biologists . At age sixteen, Darwin left Shrewsbury to study medicine at University of Edinbourgh . However, he could not continue in the studies because the sight of surgery performed without anesthesia repelled him. Eventually, Darwin attended Cambridge University to study to become a clergyman. After he graduated, he went on a five-year scientific expedition to the pacific coast of South America on the H.M.S. Beagle from 1831 - 1836. On the Origin of Species was published in 1859 describing evolution and natural selection and giving a theoretical explanation for the diversity among living and fossil beings. His book was not well received among the general population who felt threatened at the notion that humans were descended from ape-like creatures. The scientific community, however, did grasp his theories and today his book forms the basis for many contemporary archaeological theories. In 1839 he married his cousin, Emma Wedgewood. After this, he spent much of his spare time gardening and raising pigeons. Charles Darwin lived with his wife and children at their home on Downe, England. It is thought that he may have contracted some kind of illness during his travels in South America. He died on April 19, 1882 and is buried at Westminster Abbey.

"The evidence for a Lamarckian mechanism at work in the immune system now seems very convincing, contradicting one of the main dogmas of Darwinian biology. This book presents the experimental evidence to date as to how adaptive immune responses may be incorporated into the DNA of the organism, thus making them heritable material. If the retrogene mechanism is at work in the immune system what other roles might it be playing in evolution? A huge question for our current understanding of evolution."
