Natural Selection Introduction
... Charles Darwin (1809 -1882) Charles Darwin is famous for the theory of evolution and Natural Selection, or ‘Survival of the Fittest’. He dedicated his life to studying plants and animals and believed that the desires of animals have nothing to do with how they evolve. He said that organisms, even of ...
