Charles Darwin was an english scientist borned in 1809. He studied the nature and wrote his conclusions in his famouse book "The origins of species by means of natural selection". He died at the age of 72 in 1882. After 5 years of voyage he got really inteterest in animals, and after studying them he concluded that we all are a result of an evolution and an adaptation to our environment.
His theory of natural selection basically express his main conclusion after all his experiences which is that spicies develope depending on their environment  and after time they start to evolve for satifying their needs. All these findings were really useful for understanding universe and continue explainig other things about life, but these advanced ideas were not well apreciated by the conservative and extremely religious society of those times, making his theory rejected and unpopular.The previous fact, plus his marriage problems, and his daughter bad health conditions made Darwin feel anguish for developing his work. Charles Darwin was a polemic scientist for having ideas and publishing works that in the moment were against the church, but all his theories were usefull for the development of science and understanding of world.
