3 posts | 3 read | 1 reading | 4 to read
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY DARWIN'S GREAT-GREAT-GRANDDAUGHTER, RUTH PADEL When the eminent naturalist Charles Darwin returned from South America on board the H.M.S Beagle in 1836, he brought with him the notes and evidence which would form the basis of his landmark theory of evolution of species by a process of natural selection. This theory, published as The Origin of Species in 1859, is the basis of modern biology and the concept of biodiversity. It also sparked a fierce scientific, religious and philosophical debate which still continues today.

My choice for tonight's #Fridaynightshare is without doubt The Voyage of the Beagle, Charles Darwin exhilarating record of his travels as a young man, that sowed the idea of evolutionary change. This experience, this journey had a life-changing effect on his direction in life.
I have lost count the number of times I have reached for this book. It brings me great comfort and joy.

• Never thought I'd be starting this one but I finished the first installment today; I like it and can follow the science so far •
