Darwin was prompted to write his famous book by another naturalist called Alfred Russel Wallace.
Wallace was a naturalist collecting in the East Indies. He had developed a theory essentially the same as Darwin's, and in 1858 he wrote to Darwin, asking him to have it published if he thought it worthwhile.
At this point Darwin had been working on his ideas for 20 years, and had written an outline of his theory in 1844. However he was reluctant to publish it because of the controversy it would cause.
On receiving Wallace's letter, he took the advice of his friend the geologist Charles Lyell and submitted both Wallace's essay and an extract from his own 1844 essay to the Linnaean Society in London in 1858.
He then set to work on his book, On the origin of species, which he published in 1859.

This theory suggests that species evolve over time through the process of genetic variation, natural selection, and adaptation to their environment. Darwin's work revolutionized the understanding of the diversity of life on Earth.
Charles Darwin is credited as the discoverer of the theory of natural selection. Darwin's work on evolution through natural selection was presented in his book "On the Origin of Species," published in 1859.
The book "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection" was written by Charles Darwin.
