Charles Robert Darwin, FRS (12 February 1809 - 19 April 1882) was
an English naturalist. He established that all species of life have
descended over time from common ancestors, and proposed the
scientific theory that this branching pattern of evolution resulted
from a process that he called natural selection. Darwin published
his theory with compelling evidence for evolution in his 1859 book
On the Origin of Species, overcoming scientific rejection of
earlier concepts of transmutation of species. By the 1870s the
scientific community and much of the general public had accepted
evolution as a fact. However, many favoured competing explanations
and it was not until the emergence of the modern evolutionary
synthesis from the 1930s to the 1950s that a broad consensus
developed in which natural selection was the basic mechanism of
evolution. In modified form, Darwin's scientific discovery is the
unifying theory of the life sciences, explaining thediversity of
life. -wikipedia
