Charles Robert Darwin was an English naturalist, geologist and biologist, best known for his contributions to the science of evolution. He established that all species of life have descended over time from common ancestors and, in a joint publication with Alfred Russel Wallace, introduced his scientific theory that this branching pattern of evolution resulted from a process that he called natural selection, in which the struggle for existence has a similar effect to the artificial selection involved in selective breeding.

From his earliest childhood to his old age, Charles Darwin paid attention to the details around him. He was a plodder, taking his time to think about the slight differences between similar flora and fauna. He suffered from seasickness and ill health his whole life and this may have given him the time to think and come to his world view and theories of evolution.
