Before Charles Darwin published his Origin of Species (1859), he dreaded a hostile reception. Examine how Darwin sailed on the HMS Beagle and later came to write the Origin. Discuss the initial reaction to the publication and later responses, as its implications became fully understood. Explore the conflicts between the theory of evolution and religion, including the Scope’s trial and recent arguments over teaching evolution versus creation science.
