Darwin’s Dangerous Idea, the BBC three part series, has just finished airing. Presented by Andrew Marr, this fantastic programme dissected the work and ideas of Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution, one of the most important scientific theories of all time. Darwin’s Dangerous Idea looked at the impact of Darwin now and then. Unsurprisingly, Darwin’s book The Origin of Species was met with outrage and criticism from his contemporaries who believed that species were immutable and created by God. Extinction of species was believed to have occured as a result of God’s great flood, as described in the Old Testament story of Noah’s Ark.
Charles Darwin is possibly the most influential scientist that ever lived, and his theory of evolution was laid out in his remarkable and controversial book, The Origin of Species. You can buy The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin for as little as £2.50 from Amazon.
