Innes claimed that Charles was one of those rare mortals from whom one can differ and yet feel no shade of animosity. He recalled that on his last visit to Down, Charles said at his dinner-table, Brodie Innes and I have been fast friends for many years and we never thoroughly agreed on any subject but once, and then we stared hard at each other and thought one of us must be very ill .6 When the Bishop of Oxford produced a blistering review of The Origin of Species in The Quarterly, Brodie Innes was

upon Malthus by Darwin and Wallace alike. * The importance of Malthus is stressed by A. Sandow, Social Factors in the Origin of Darwinism, Quarterly Review of Biology, XIII (1938), 315-326. Nor does the charge that, in so many words, Darwin lied about Malthus to conceal his own plagiarism seem to be more than an ad hoc hypothesis casting doubt on the argument for plagiarism itself. * Eiseley, Charles Darwin, Edward Blyth (above, n. 3).

which have given rise to present conditions of adaptation. His procedure may be elucidated through an examination of his thinking on the origin of the sterility which prevents illegitimate crossing in heterostylic plants. His reasoning on such matters is of the utmost biological significance, for the evolution of sterility plays an important role in speciation. Were it not for the inability of species to interbreed, they would exchange hereditary material and become increasingly less diverse

psychology developed out of his evolutionary thinking. His work was, among other things, a means of studying the evolution of behavior. Arguments of a behavioral nature are of great importance in The Descent of Man. A Posthumous Essay on Instinct, abstracted from the work which The Origin of Species was written to replace, shows that Darwin had long been interested in the evolution of behavior. * C.

Criticisms of the concept of instinct have come, as one might expect, largely from psychologists, while zoologists on the whole find the term agreeable. * E.g., F. A.

both individuals and lineages—a curious variant on the traditional analogy between microcosm and macrocosm. To a mechanistic evolutionist, the correlation between ontogeny and the taxonomic hierarchy could be explained in terms of historical relationships: the developmental pattern bears traces of the same course of events that is responsible for our ability to erect the system of classification. Darwin used this correspondence as one of the basic arguments in The Origin of Species. Soon afterward

the conclusions are derived from the premises. And with all the intricacies of logic to consider, the argument requires the closest attention if it is to be followed at all. In The Descent of Man the major theme is sexual selection, a topic which Darwin could develop only in bare outline in The Origin of Species, where he gives the following definition: This depends, not on a struggle for existence, but on a struggle between the males for possession of the females; the result is not death to the

Nothing hinders the work of genius more than man's incapacity to appreciate original ideas. The fact that Darwin's accomplishment has been controversial merely reflects the degree to which it has been misunderstood. Was Darwin just a naturalist and a good observer, or was he a theoretician of the first rank? Was he unphilosophical, or did he possess sufficient wisdom not to embrace the metaphysical follies of his detractors? Is The Origin of Species, in the words of a present-day historian

theory, from its roots in the hypotheses of The Origin of Species, to its application as a fundamental component in the arguments of The Descent of Man. Without an understanding of this particular continuity, Darwin's later writings are largely unintelligible. Indeed, because the underlying frame of reference has been overlooked, Darwin's work on behavior has been interpreted as little more than miscellaneous observations—the casual study of a Sunday naturalist seeking relaxation from the strains

molar is understandable given that the teeth of Toxodon, as noted by Owen (1838), bear a certain resemblance to those of rodents. Implications of the erroneous assignments of the youthful Darwin Twenty years before the publication of the Origin of Species and only two years after he had begun recording his thoughts on transmutation, Darwin (1839, p. 209-210) had this to say about the South American paleofauna: The most important result of this discovery, is the confirmation of the law that

processes that may have explained the origin of the deposits and the associated paleoflora: Certainly the upright trees have been buried under several thousand feet in thickness of matter, accumulated under the sea. As the land, moreover, on which the trees grew, is formed of subaqueous deposits, of nearly if not quite equal thickness with the superincumbent strata, and as these deposits are regularly stratified and fine-grained, not like the matter thrown up on a sea-beach, a previous upward movement

the Formations of the Pampas, the fourth chapter of his Geological Observations on South America (1846). The vast extent, the disputed origin and the abundance of fossil mammal remains were the three main aspects underlined by Charles Darwin when he summarized the characteristics of the Pampean sediments. What was the meaning of the Pampean Formation as used by Darwin?; what is the meaning of this term at present?; what is our present understanding of the late Cenozoic Pampean geology?. This

shells, of which thirteen are recent and four others very closely related to recent forms; whether the remaining ones are extinct or simply unknown, must be doubtful, as few collections of shells have been made on this coast. As, however, the recent species were embedded in nearly the same proportional numbers with those now living in the bay, I think there can be little doubt, that this accumulation belongs to a very late tertiary period (Darwin 1845, p. 83). The 23 mentioned species are in fact 20

very great physical changes can have taken place in the nature of the Country. What then has exterminated so many living creatures?…We are so profoundly ignorant concerning the physiological relations, on which the life, and even health (as shown by epidemics) of any existing species depends, that we argue with still less safety about either the life or death of any extinct kind (Voyage of the Beagle, Chapter IX, Jan. 1834). In this way, Darwin not only triggered the studies on the genealogical
