    Extractions: Charles Darwin was Francis Galton's half-cousin, sharing the same grandfather, Erasmus Darwin. Erasmus had been a successful doctor and something of a polymath himself, co-founding the Lunar Club with Josiah Wedgwood and Joseph Priestley, among others. The Darwin and Galton family had some contact over the years, but it was not until Darwin and Galton were both mature working scientists that any serious contact took place. Darwin had initiated the contact, after he had read Galton's Narrative of an Explorer in Tropical South Africa , around 1853. Galton later read The Origin of Species , which he would later call a revolutionary effect on his own thinking, and a regular correspondence followed until Darwin's death. Some of the extensive correspondence between Darwin and Galton is reproduced here. Letter from Darwin to Galton 13, SEAHOUSES, EASTBOURNE, SUSSEX. July 24th, 1853. DEAR GALTON

    Extractions: by Richard Dawkins Any given gene in a gene pool is likely to exist in the form of several duplicate copies, either all descended from the same original mutant, or descended from independent parallel mutants. therefore each gene can be said to have a frequency in the gene pool. Some genes, such as the albino gene, are rare in the gene pool, others are common. At the genetic level, evolution may be defined as the process by which gene-frequencies change in gene pools. Not all selective deaths lead to evolutionary change. On the contrary, much natural selection is so-called stabilising selection, removing genes from the gene pool that tend to cause deviation from an already optimal form. But when environmental conditions change, either through natural catastrophe or through evolutionary improvement of other creatures (predators, prey, parasites, and so on), selection may lead to evolutionary change. the philosopher Daniel Dennett has written: "Let me lay my cards on the table. If I were to give an award for the single best idea anyone has ever had, I'd give it to Darwin, ahead of Newton and Einstein and everyone else." Comparative judgments like that are hard to make. But on one criterion Darwin's contribution surely heads the field. the sheer power of the idea, measured as the amount of explanatory work that it does, divided by the extreme simplicity of the idea itself, leaves one astonished that humanity had to wait till the mid nineteenth century before one of us thought of it.

He attended St John’s College , Cambridge, graduating with a bachelor of medicine degree in 1755. His medical education also included William Hunter’s anatomy lectures in London and two years (1754-1755) at the Edinburgh Medical School. Darwin began his medical career in Nottingham before moving to Lichfield , in Staffordshire, in 1756. Here an early success with a supposedly incurable patient helped establish his reputation. Darwin employed the usual therapeutics of 18th-century medicine , but he was a careful and diligent doctor whose advice included fresh air, exercise, and attention to diet. His bedside manner was apparently unhindered by his stutter.
