About this ebook
“An illuminating, humanizing portrait of a famous scientist.” —Booklist, starred review
All his life, Charles Darwin hated controversy. Yet he takes his place among the Giants of Science for what remains an immensely controversial subject: the theory of evolution. Darwin began piecing together his explanation for how all living things change or adapt during his five-year voyage on HMS Beagle. But it took him twenty years to go public, for fear of the backlash his theory would cause. Once again, Kathleen Krull delivers a witty and astute picture of one of history's greatest scientists.

The Evolution was nothing about in Human evolution because this evolution is nothing but a theory.Actually animals should only evolve not us,since we over populate the Earth today there is a chance that we humans will go extinct tomorrow and today we will never ever evolve onto new species,mark my words non-god believing evolutionists because this is the truth...
