	John Stevens Henslow
		Henslow's popularity as a teacher was due largely to his progressive teaching techniques, which relied heavily on field- and garden-work, and on encouraging his students to make observations of their own, rather than simply having them spoon-fed. Darwin attended Henslow's field trips assiduously, and was soon taking long, almost daily walks with his tutor.
		Henslow became the main recipient of Darwin's massive collection of scientific samples, despatched home at irregular intervals during the voyage.
		Henslow's activities did not, however, become entirely parochial: he still found time to carry out archaeological excavations, tutor Queen Victoria's children, and keep in touch with the wider scientific community, including his celebrated former pupil, Mr Charles Darwin, Fellow of the Royal Society.

		Henslow had already established his former pupil's reputation during the Beagle expedition by giving selected naturalists access to fossil specimens sent back as well as having Darwin's geological writings privately printed for distribution.
		In the inception of his theory Darwin tried to satisfy the methodology of William Whewell's metascience which is now thought to be mistaken in many ways, and in the 1860s this lead to him having to debate the merits of the methodology.

	Darwin's Mentor : John Stevens Henslow, 1796-1861 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		John Stevens Henslow is known for his formative influence on Charles Darwin, who described their meeting as the one circumstance "which influenced my career more than any other." A Professor of Botany at Cambridge University, Henslow was Darwin's teacher and eventual life-long friend, but what of the man himself?
		The time in 1829-31, when Darwin "walked with Henslow" in and around Cambridge, was followed directly by Darwin's voyage around the world.
		The gradually changing relationship between teacher and pupil over the course of time is revealed through their correspondence, illuminating a remarkable friendship that persisted, in spite of Darwin's eventual atheism and Henslow's never-failing liberal Christian belief, to the end of Henslow's life.

		It was also Fox who introduced Darwin to John Stevens Henslow who held a weekly open house which undergraduates and some older members of the University, who were attached to science attended in the evenings.
		Fox discovered many new dinosaurs, including Aristosuchus, Calamospondylus and Polacanthus, and was the first to realise that Hypsilophodon was a dinosaur species in its own right, and not a juvenile Iguanodon, and despite not being a professional scientist, had a significant impact on the early study of dinosaurs.
		Fox was described as putting "always the bones first and the parish next", and wished for a permanent position in Brighstone, saying "I cannot leave this place while I have any money left to live on, I take such deep joy in hunting for old dragons".

		Henslow graduated from St. John's College at Cambridge in 1818 and then turned to natural history, making geological expeditions to the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man with the English zoologist Adam Sedgwick, with whom he later established the Cambridge Philosophical Society (1821).

		Henslow's publications include A Catalogue of British Plants (1829) and The Principles of Descriptive and Physiological Botany (1835).
