I'm Charles Robert Darwin, a British scientist. I came from England in 1831 on the Beagle to carry out biological and paleontological research.
We are in 1835, in the Galapagos Island
Darwin study many species, fossils and makes geological observations. In addition he discovered many species that were unknown and regularly send letters of his observations with specimens

After returning from his travel in 1835 Charles Darwin organized his discoveries for more than 12 years. In 1859 Darwin published On the origins of species, a revolutionary books that change the way biology was understood
Evolution
On the origins of species
Natural Selection
Three concepts are important for understanding Charles Darwin's theories : Natural selection, Evolution and the Origin of species.
The Origin of species
Natural selection is when a random mutation appears in a population of a species and this mutation allows the individual to survive longer to then reproduce and spread this mutation in the population.
