Origin of Species

Charles Darwin changed our view of the world and of humanity forever. His theory of evolution provided the first conclusive explanation of how species evolve from other species, why they change and why they disappear again. As a young man, Darwin had been given the opportunity of a lifetime: He was allowed to take part in an expedition on the "Beagle" that took him around the world and lasted almost five years. Darwin's tireless research drive and the wide range of his topics made him the forefather of all modern biologists, and the theory of evolution he derived from it one of the most influential thinkers of all time.
