Darwinism

Darwinism is a book written by Alfred Russell Wallace, an English naturalist and biologist who co-discovered the theory of evolution by natural selection with Charles Darwin. In this book, Wallace presents his own interpretation of Darwin's theory and expands upon it with his own ideas and observations. He explores the concept of natural selection, discussing how it works and how it can be applied to various aspects of biology and ecology. Wallace also delves into the history of evolution, discussing the ideas and theories that preceded Darwin and how they influenced his own work. Additionally, he discusses the implications of evolution for human society and ethics. Overall, Darwinism is a comprehensive exploration of the theory of evolution and its impact on the natural world and human society.1889.
