Two Scientists Share Credit for the Theory of Evolution. Darwin Got Famous; This Biologist Didn’t.

Have you heard of Charles Darwin? Of course you have it. But have you heard of A. R. Wallace? It may not be the case. But what if I tell you that he is as important as Darwin in discovering the theory of natural selection?

Since history was not friendly to Wallace, he pushed him back deep into ambiguity and all geek college students posted Darwin's posters on the walls of their dorms. In this video, animation producers Flora Lichtman and Sharon Shattuck talk about forgotten Wallace's stories - misfortune, shipwreck, backpack, malaria, amazing science.

It was during the malaria adaptation that Wallace began to come up with ideas of natural selection. He sent the manuscript to Darwin, and Darwin put together a series of memos placed with Wallace. When the Linnaeus Association in London heard about natural selection in 1858, Wallace and Darwin shared their credibility.

So what? Why do you remember Darwin instead of Wallace? When Darwin announced "Origin of the species", first of all, he did not mention Wallace very much. Wallace does not complain. In fact, he likes this book. What he lasted was that he disappeared

Charles Darwin is recognized as the best biologist ever. The theory which made Charles Darwin famous was his evolution theory. Darwin is the first person who advocated a theory to explain how all living things are related. But his evolution theory is controversial to many creationists who believe that God is the creator of all kinds. In Darwin's "Origin of Species", he

However, Darwin is not the first or only scientist who developed evolution theory. French biologist Jean-Baptiste Lamarck proposed the idea that organisms can pass features to their descendants, even though he is wrong about certain details. Along with Darwin, British biologist Alfred Russell Wallace independently proposed evolution by natural selection. Pobiner said Darwin knew nothing about genetics. "He observed the pattern of evolution but did not actually understand it." Then, how genes code different biological or behavioral features, a combination of genetics and Darwinian theory Is called "modern evolutionary synthesis".

Like all scientists, Darwin is based on the work of many scientists in front of him. Even the ancient philosophers are proposing stories and ideas that are thought to be the basis of evolution. So why is Darwin praised that he proposed the theory of evolution? He was the first person to publish not only theory but evidence evolution and mechanism (natural selection). The first publication on Darwin's natural selection and evolution was in fact a joint paper with Alfred Russell Wallace but after talking with the geologist Charles Rayleigh, Darwin went right behind Wallace I wrote a summary in the announcement that what he can say is the most famous work.
