Biography of Charles Robert Darwin
Charles Robert Darwin (February 12 , 1809 - April 19, 1882 ) was an English naturalist who postulated that all species of life have evolved over time from commonancestors through a process called natural selection. The evolution was accepted as fact by the scientific community and much of the public life of Darwin, while his theory of evolution by naturalselection was not considered as the primary explanation of the evolutionary process until the 1930 . Currently forms the basis of modern evolutionary synthesis. In modified form , Darwin 's scientificdiscoveries are still the foundation charter of biology as a science, since they constitute a logical explanation that unifies observations about the diversity of life.
With just 16 Darwin entered theUniversity of Edinburgh, but was gradually putting aside his medical studies to pursue research in marine invertebrates. Subsequently the University of Cambridge gave wings to his passion for naturalscience. The second voyage of HMS Beagle established him as an eminent geologist whose observations and theories supported Charles Lyell's uniformitarian ideas , while the publication of the diary ofhis journey made ​​him famous as a popular writer. Puzzled by the geographical distribution of wildlife and fossils he collected on the voyage , Darwin investigated the transmutation of species andconceived his theory of natural selection in 1838.4 Although he discussed his ideas with several naturalists , he needed time to conduct thorough research and his geological work had prioridad.5 he waswriting up his theory in 1858 when Alfred Russel Wallace sent him an essay which described the same idea , urging Darwin to make a joint publication of both theories .
