Charles Darwin was best known in the 19th century for his groundbreaking theory of evolution through natural selection, which he articulated in his seminal work, "On the Origin of Species," published in 1859. This theory proposed that species evolve over time through a process of variation and survival of the fittest. Darwin's ideas significantly challenged the prevailing views on creation and the immutability of species, laying the foundation for modern Biology and influencing various fields beyond science. His work sparked widespread debate and changed the way humanity understands its place in the natural world.
