	Charles Darwin - Biography and Works
		Charles Darwin (1809-1882) was a British naturalist, who revolutionized the science of biology by his demonstration of evolution by natural selection.
		Darwin was born in Shrewsbury on 12 February 1809.
		Although Darwin never coined the term "survival of the fittest," the impact of his research and writing have obvious influence in the notion that all species moved forward on the backs of the "fittest." In other words, through natural selection our ancestors have passed forward the more favorable genes/traits for us to live successfully.

	The Scientists: Charles Darwin.
		Darwin's "evolutionary and comprehensive vision" is a monistic one, it shows that our universe is a "unitary and continuous process," there does not exist a "dualistic split," and that all phenomena are natural.
		Darwin and Wallace jointly presented their theories to a learned society in London on July 1st, 1858 and both papers were published by the society shortly thereafter.
		Darwin was not a conversationalist and he only very rarely appeared in public to defend his theories himself; he was fully represented by Thomas H. Huxley, "Darwin's Bulldog."
