The most in-depth exhibition ever mounted on Charles Darwin (1809 - 1882), the highly original thinker, botanist, geologist, and naturalist, and his theory of evolution. Simple yet at times controversial, misunderstood and misused for social goals, Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection theory remains unchallenged as the central concept of modern biology.
Darwin was curated by Niles Eldredge, a paleontologist on the curatorial staff of the American Museum of Natural History.
