Preface




The inspiration for this guide can be traced to my decision way back in 1966 to read all of Darwin's major works and write a book about him, The Triumph of the Darwinian Method, published in 1969. Subsequently, I have continued to be an avid reader of Darwin's publications and have written quite a number of shorter pieces on his life and works. The guide itself has evolved out of my notes, bibliographies, and other scholarly apparatus. The chronology owes a great deal to my contributions to the Dictionnaire du Darwinisme edited by Patrick Tort. An early version of the biographical dictionary was created when I prepared the Darwin CD ROM in collaboration with Pete Goldie. Further material was gathered in the expectation of producing a third edition of the CD ROM. Alas, because of changes in the economics of electronic publishing, that project never came to fruition, though the second edition is still available. This is not, however, a re-issue of materials published earlier. The chronology and the biographies are based on notes that have been extensively reworked and much expanded. Over the years I have continued to enlarge my personal, computerized bibliography, and the selections from it presented here are based on literally years of work. Although the introductory section bears some resemblance to those I have written for re-issues of Darwin's books, it was written entirely from scratch.

With the approach of the bicentennial of Darwin's birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of The Origin of Species, the need for a guide like this became increasingly obvious. My colleague Alan Leviton gave me a great deal of encouragement and we worked out a plan to publish this guide in both hard copy and on line.

Acknowledgments




Several persons have helped me assemble the materials used here and get them into electronic form and I am most grateful to them. These include Rasmus Winther and Subir Trivedi. Michele Aldrich read a draft with great care and provided much useful advice and greatly improved the manuscript. Alan Leviton was supportive of this project, both improving the manuscript and getting it ready for publication. I am particularly anxious to thank my old friend Barbara Pope, a plant physiologist who has spent many months in the Darwin archives at Cambridge University. She played various important roles in preparing the manuscript, volunteering her time and providing a generous donation in support of publication. Lastly, I want to thank Hallie Brignall, the Academy's Managing Editor of Scientific Publications, for critiquing galley proofs of this publication.

DARWIN: A READER'S GUIDE




INTRODUCTION




Charles Darwin's book entitled On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life was published in 1859. It shook the world like no other publication before or since and initiated a revolution in our thinking that is still gathering momentum. It is among the most important scientific books ever written, and for many of us the one most worthy of being read and understood. Although well written, and intended for a broad audience, it is anything but a piece of light literature. It challenges the reader to study and to reflect. Furthermore, the Origin was intended as an "abstract" of a much longer work, to be entitled Natural Selection, which was neither finished nor was it published in Darwin's lifetime. Instead Darwin published a series of sequels to the Origin, which bear such titles as The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication and The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex. These too deserve to be read, and read with understanding.

Might we not say much the same of the entire corpus of Darwin's writings? After all, he was the author of a travel book recounting his voyage around the world that is a masterpiece of the genre and one that has delighted readers ever since it appeared in 1839. This first volume made his scientific reputation as a geologist, and that aspect of his work is crucial to understanding what kind of thinker he was. A full twenty percent of his life's work was devoted to a massive treatise on barnacles, a publication which, if not must reading for everybody, is of more than just historical interest. A variety of people, in addition to zoologists, might find parts of it quite fascinating. Much the same might be said of his writings on floral anatomy, plant physiology, plant and animal behavior, psychology, and, especially, earthworms.

Although the exercise of reading all of Darwin can be rewarding, most readers will not have the time or the inclination to go so far. A good sample, suited to the reader's tastes and interests, seems more realistic. But the reader might welcome an overview as well as some guidance with respect to the interpretation of the various works. Beginners need to know where to begin, and even the most experienced might appreciate some guidelines. Interested persons include both the more casual and general reader and the scholarly community, including students as well as professionals in many branches of knowledge. A fair number of readers might get more deeply involved with Darwin than they had originally intended, and that would hardly be regrettable.

Bearing such needs in mind, I have prepared this Guide, one that reflects my personal experience and draws upon the materials I have accumulated with the passage of decades. The Guide begins with a short biography of Darwin that differs somewhat from some of my other biographical pieces in that it expressly focuses upon Darwin's literary productions. It provides background, context, and explication for the texts. Because Darwin dealt with different topics at different times in his life, there is a roughly chronological order, beginning with natural history and geology, and ending with physiology and psychology. That justifies emphasizing the major works and treating them in a more or less logical sequence.

The next section of the Guide is a Chronology, or timeline, showing dates relevant to the study of Darwin's life. Some of these are obviously important, whereas others are rather trivial, perhaps being mentioned solely for their curiosity value. Included are details of Darwin's life both public and private. This part will probably be most useful to students and the community of professional Darwin scholars. However, one can easily imagine uses to which it might be put by the general reader. For example, Darwin's account of his trip around the world was based largely on the journal that he kept. However, for literary reasons, he did not present his visits to particular places in strictly chronological order. So, if one is interested in knowing what he did, and when and where he did it, the task can be frustrating, especially if one does not have the original version of his journal at hand.

Next comes the Darwin Biographical Dictionary, an alphabetically-arranged series of biographical sketches of persons of interest to students of Darwin's life and works. Similar biographical sketches can be found elsewhere, and readers also have recourse to standard biographical works including encyclopedias.

[page] 8

Yet these do not always provide the kind of information that a student of Darwin needs. Here the goal has been to emphasize the relevance of each person to our understanding of Darwin and his life. The choice of whom to include has been a bit arbitrary at times. Every effort has been made to include the persons mentioned in the Chronology. Also included are many of the important people whose names are encountered in Darwin's works and a fair number of minor figures as well.

The final section consists of bibliographies. These have been prepared from my personal database on topics that interest me. I have not been able to check all of the references against the originals, especially secondary sources taken from other bibliographies. I have, however, checked many of these. In the case of Darwin's own publications, I have been particularly fastidious but fear I may have made some mistakes. However, I was able to identify and correct the year of publication normally attributed to one of Darwin's own works by examining the signatures of an original copy in the California Academy of Sciences' library showing clearly that it could not have been published as early as had been thought.

Here is as good a place as any to point out how often the titles of Darwin's own books turn up in emended form, and this is often indicative of how poorly the work has been understood. Consider three examples. On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life becomes On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or, The Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life. A clause that explains the then unfamiliar term ‘natural selection' has been converted into an alternative title. The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication becomes The Variations…. A process of varying is confused with the phenomenon of diversity. And finally, consider an example that suggests a failure to consult the original: A Monograph on the Sub-Class Cirripedia becomes A Monograph of…. Let us not be too hard on those who make such mistakes, especially now, when computers automatically and, seemingly, without apparent human intervention, introduce errors into texts!

The first of the bibliographies is that of Darwin's own publications. With a few minor exceptions, I have checked all of these publications against the originals. Several of Darwin's books appeared in more than one edition. I have compared all of the editions word for word, and that can be an instructive exercise. There are problems that one should watch out for with different printings and different editions. It also helps to know that all the variants in the six editions of The Origin of Species have been presented in a "variorum" edition by Morse Peckham (1959). Unfortunately, the variorum edition is rather difficult to use.

The second of the bibliographies gives works that were based on specimens that Darwin collected. Many of these contain quotations from Darwin's notes. It aims only at a good, representative sample.

The third of the bibliographies contains secondary literature, i.e., what people have written about Darwin. It also includes publications based on Darwin's notebooks, correspondence and manuscripts, generally with scholarly notes and commentary. There is a vast and growing body of literature on Darwin. It would be an impossible task, and a waste of time, to try to cite every work in which Darwin's name is mentioned, even in the title. For example, when scientists provide the scientific name of an animal or plant they include the name of the scientist who described it. Inasmuch as Darwin named many species of barnacles, a large number of papers by zoologists include his name for no other reason.

Such a bibliography as this obviously should include the important works, especially those of high scholarly quality. It is fairly easy to identify the books and journal articles that are considered important and of high quality by professional Darwin scholars. On the other hand, some works that are well known are not of very high quality. One neither wants to leave these out, nor does one want to ignore a book simply because it is written for a popular audience. But one must draw the line somewhere, and I have left out many works that seem to have little if any scholarly merit. On the other hand I have included much that I, personally, do not think very highly of.

At the end of the biographical essay, which immediately follows this introduction, I do recommend some works that seem to me particularly meritorious, interesting, or useful. Then there is the question of what really counts as Darwin studies. The bibliography includes a substantial number of items that are not primarily about Darwin himself, but deal with persons who were important in his life, such as his friends and collaborators Joseph Dalton Hooker and Thomas Henry Huxley, and of course Alfred Russel Wallace, with whom he shares credit for the discovery of natural selection. There are also some works that are valuable for understanding areas of knowl-

edge to which Darwin contributed or otherwise provide background information that might be useful to the reader.

DARWIN'S LIFE AND WORKS


Someone bent upon reading all of Darwin might reasonably begin with what is rather misleadingly called his autobiography and other works of an autobiographical character. However, such an entry into his works presents unexpected difficulties. In the first place, the "autobiography" was not written for publication but for his family, who did not have to be told, for example, not to take his modest assessment of his own abilities at face value. In the second place, the version that was edited and published by his son Francis in 1887 deleted some material that was deemed unfit for publication at the time. So it includes an expression of admiration for the philosopher Herbert Spencer, but not the expression of disapproval that qualified it. An unexpurgated edition was published by one of Darwin's grand-daughters, Norah Barlow. On the other hand, the autobiography is good reading and it provides a fair overview of Darwin's life and some insight into his character. Darwin also wrote a biography of his Grandfather, Erasmus Darwin, whose views on evolution are an important part of the history on the subject. Although it says little about evolution or other scientific topics, it is a most enjoyable book to read.

Charles Darwin was born on February 12, 1809. His father, Robert Waring Darwin, was a wealthy physician. His paternal grandfather, Erasmus Darwin, was also a highly successful physician as well a scientist, an inventor, and a famous poet. His notions about evolution were similar to those of Lamarck and appeared in print earlier. Charles Darwin's mother, Susannah Wedgwood, was the daughter of Josiah Wedgwood I, who founded the Wedgwood pottery firm. She was the sister of Charles's uncle, Josiah Wedgwood II, who continued to run the family business. She died when Charles was only eight years old and Charles and his younger sister Caroline were cared for by their older sisters. Charles shared an interest in chemistry with his older brother, Erasmus Alvey Darwin. That interest provides a good example of how young Darwin's education was largely extracurricular. He performed poorly in school and was sent, at the age of sixteen, to study medicine at the University of Edinburgh, where his elder brother Erasmus was already enrolled. Charles seems to have been an indifferent medical student, in part it would seem because he had figured out that he would never have to work for a living. On the other hand, he joined the local scientific society, became acquainted with local scientists, and pursued his extra-curricular interests.

Darwin decided that he did not want to continue his medical education. His brother, although he did complete his medical degree, never practiced and spent his life as a gentleman intellectual in London. Their father, afraid that Charles would become an idle sporting man, insisted that he do something respectable. Therefore he was sent to Cambridge University to be educated as a clergyman. This makes more sense than one might think: a living in the country would provide him with a soft job and plenty of time in which to pursue his real interests. Furthermore, science was a respectable activity for a clergyman in those days, and Cambridge professors were often ordained as Anglican ministers. At Cambridge Darwin was again a rather indifferent student, though he completed the requirements for a degree and performed respectably on his examinations. The extracurricular activities were another matter. He became an avid beetle collector, and made contact with entomologists. He read Alexander von Humboldt's account of scientific travel in South America and it had a profound effect on him. Perhaps his most important reading at the time, however, was John Herschel's Introduction to the Study of Natural Philosophy. It was a major work on the philosophy of science, one that Darwin said was very important in his intellectual development. At Cambridge he met William Whewell, another important early philosopher of science. He became the protégé of John Stevens Henslow, the professor of botany, and spent a great deal of time with him. He attended Henslow's series of botany lectures twice. Another important figure in his life was the geologist Adam Sedgwick. Darwin accompanied him on a field excursion and evidently learned a lot from him.

After passing his examinations in January of 1831, Darwin still had to fulfill the residence requirements and his time seems largely to have been devoted to preparing for a career as a scientist, and that included some travel. By good fortune he was offered the post of unofficial naturalist and gentlemanly companion to the captain, Robert FitzRoy, on a surveying voyage on H.M.S. Beagle. Although Darwin's father at first refused to grant permission, his mother's brother, Josiah Wedgwood II, intervened and the invitation was accepted. The Beagle was scheduled to

[page] 10

map the South American coast and, by means of very accurate clocks called chronometers, to determine longitudes. The result would be better maps and improved navigation. FitzRoy was an able captain, much admired by his men, and intellectually well equipped for the task. But he was a difficult person, and suffered from bouts of depression. FitzRoy and Darwin became good friends, though their relationship was strained for a while because of differences about slavery. Measured in terms of the value systems of the day, Darwin was liberal, open-minded, and tolerant, whereas FitzRoy was rigidly conservative. They both approved of the work of Christian missionaries in Tahiti and co-authored an article to that effect when they reached Cape Town.

Darwin, although he was not the Beagle's official naturalist, was encouraged to collect and observe anything of interest to natural history that he might encounter during the voyage. The Beagle had an excellent collection of relevant scientific books on board so he was able to consult the literature during the trip. His original intent was to concentrate on the two areas in which he had gained experience at Edinburgh and Cambridge respectively: marine zoology and geology. He took the first volume of Charles Lyell's Principles of Geology with him, and the other two volumes reached him later on en route. Lyell was an advocate of the principle of uniformitarianism, and was opposed to the deluges and other major upheavals that had been invoked by advocates of catastrophism. Darwin was soon convinced of the merits of Lyell's approach and became one of his most effective supporters. As the voyage continued, Darwin realized that his geological researches were yielding important results. Yet he continued to observe and collect plants and animals. He also made some observations on behavior that seem, in retrospect, to relate to the kind of evolutionary speculation that he had encountered at Edinburgh. He traveled and collected extensively on land, and as a result realized that there had been a considerable amount of change, and rather recently. Giant animals had become extinct. Introduced animals and plants were invading new territory. And there were peculiar distribution patterns. Interest in such matters was further stimulated by Lyell's negative, albeit penetrating, assessment of the evolutionary ideas of Lamarck. During the voyage, Darwin evidently believed that species could change somewhat in adaptation to local circumstances, but not that such change could go so far as to bring new species into existence.

Along the Atlantic coast of South America Darwin found clear indications that the continent had been uplifted; on the Pacific coast he found further evidence of the same phenomenon. He worked out much of the geological history of the Andes. While he was in Chile, for example, a major earthquake occurred and he was able to document the immediate effects of upheaval. Sedgwick arranged for an account of his discoveries, sent as correspondence, to be published as Darwin's first contribution to the scientific literature. Darwin was ever concerned with the implications of his discoveries, and while still in South America he speculated about the uplift and subsidence of the land on a global scale. One result was the formulation of his famous theory of coral reefs. Coral grows in shallow water, along coasts and on islands. If an island rimmed by coral were to sink, and the coral were to grow at the same time, the island might gradually disappear and nothing but coral would be left. Later on in the voyage Darwin was able to test this theory by observations on coral formations at Tahiti and, more importantly, at Keeling Atoll in the Indian Ocean.

By his own accounts published much later, Darwin did not become an evolutionist during the voyage, though he began to think seriously about such matters. He was still a creationist both before and for some time after his famous visit to the Galapagos Archipelago, which is now treated as a living laboratory of evolution. The notion that he became a convert to evolution while visiting the Galapagos is a myth. He was looking for "centers of creation" that Lyell had invoked to explain the different faunas and floras in various parts of the world. He did not try to collect evidence related to evolution while he was there. As the voyage continued, however, he visited New Zealand and other islands with peculiar animals and plants, and of course the continent Australia too. The possibility of evolution may have been in his mind late in the voyage. However, he did not become convinced that evolution has in fact occurred until after he got home and had some of his specimens examined by specialists. Some of what he had thought were varieties turned out to be distinct species. And some of the South American fossils were giant relatives of smaller forms that were still living in the same area. There followed a period of some months, beginning in March, 1837, during which Darwin speculated a great deal and tried to invent a plausible mechanism for evolution, something that would explain the adaptations of animals and plants

[page] 11

without recourse to the supernatural. The development of his ideas can be traced in part because of the notebooks that he kept.

It was in October 1838 that Darwin read "for amusement," as he misleadingly put it, Malthus's Essay on the Principle of Population. Malthus, the first professor of economics, had pointed out that the potential rate of multiplication of any animal, man included, is so great that the supply of food and other resources will tend to restrict, and ultimately prevent, population growth. Malthus expressed the relationship by saying that the population increases geometrically, whereas the resources can only be increased arithmetically. We can ignore the niceties and details here, the point being that scarcity of resources means that there is competition between the organisms that make up the population for the wherewithal to survive and reproduce. Because some organisms are more vigorous, fertile, or otherwise well endowed than others, in subsequent generations the population changes in the direction of being more effectively equipped to win out in the reproductive competition. This was Darwin's concept of natural selection, which he presented to the world as a well developed theory some twenty years later.

Darwin kept a diary during the voyage. It provided a lively account of his travels and observations on the state of society as well as the natural scene, and was clearly influenced by Darwin's reading of Alexander von Humboldt's Personal Narrative. Early in the voyage Darwin showed his diary to Captain FitzRoy, who liked it very much and encouraged him to publish it. The diary was the basis for Darwin's first book, which is popularly known as The Voyage of the Beagle. It was extensively supplemented by additional material, and much revised. (The Diary itself, edited by Richard Darwin Keynes, has been published.) The first edition, published in 1839, appeared as part of a series that includes FitzRoy's account of the voyage. It was prepared at a time when Darwin was convinced that evolution has in fact occurred, but before he read Malthus and discovered natural selection. A second edition, with a slightly different title, was published in 1845. (We will refer to the work as the Journal of Researches, or just the Journal, for short.) By then Darwin had developed his evolutionary theory extensively, and had even written a preliminary outline and then a draft of a short book explaining it. (Later published as the "Sketch of 1842" and the "Essay of 1844.") As one might expect, the first edition of the Journal contains a considerable amount of material having to do with evolution, plus some hints about the kind of evolutionary speculation that he had been considering. The second edition adds material that bears upon the theory of natural selection, even a brief passage on Malthus. If one is interested in the evolution of Darwin's ideas, it can be an enlightening exercise to compare the three versions in some detail. For most readers, especially beginners, there is no particular reason for doing that, but the circumstances of revision should be borne in mind. The 1845 edition is the most widely available and just as good reading as the first. The book is one of the classics of travel literature and can be enjoyed simply as a literary work. Humboldt praised it for its "painterly" qualities. It also contains fascinating materials about the economy and the state of society at the time.

The book provides brief accounts of material that was discussed at greater length in Darwin's later publications, such as his book on coral reefs, and the reader will probably have no difficulty understanding their significance. However, a few comments seem in order about some of the observations that were significant for his evolutionary ideas but for good reason he did not fully explain at the time. His observations on various peoples, including primitive ones, reflect a few of his ideas about social and cultural evolution. Darwin took considerable interest in groups of animals having representatives that live in habitats that are different from those to which the group as a whole seems to be adapted. These include terrestrial flatworms, a group that is largely aquatic, and the terrestrial crab Birgus latro. In the Galapagos Islands he experimented on the behavior of a lizard that makes excursions into the sea to feed. He explicitly mentions Lamarck in his discussion of a burrowing rodent, the tucutuco, in which the eyes seem to be degenerating. In the Falklands he encountered a goose that could no longer fly, though it could move over the surface of the water quite rapidly by a combination of paddling and flapping. He discusses the habit of cuckoos and other birds of laying eggs in the nests of birds of other species, a phenomenon that he later interpreted in evolutionary terms. Anybody would have been impressed by the extinct fossil mammals, many of them of large body size, that Darwin discovered. He, however, was impressed by their close relationship to smaller animals that were still living. It was an important clue to evolution. The new species of ostrich that he discovered in Patagonia was also a hint about evolution, for it replaced another one geographically. A poisonous snake, Trigonocephalus, behaves like a rat-

[page] 12

tle-snake but lacks a rattle and instead beats its tail against vegetation. Darwin used this as an example of change in behavior setting the stage for change in structure.

In addition to preparing the Journal for publication, Darwin was very active dealing with his collections, presenting his ideas to the scientific community, and otherwise furthering his career. He got to know many of the leading scientists of the day, the most important being Lyell, and became a participant in the activities of scientific organizations such as the Geological Society of London. Meanwhile he married and took a house in London. However, his health began to decline and in 1842 he and his family moved to the village of Downe, south of London. His residence was called "Down House" and he gave his address as "Down, Beckenham, Kent" or "Down, Bromley, Kent." The reasons for Darwin's ill health, which kept him largely incapacitated for much of his career, have been the subject of much speculation. At the very least we can say that his condition, whatever its physical basis may have been, was exacerbated by anxiety and stress.

Darwin had neither the time nor the expertise that would have been necessary for him to deal with all of his collections himself. They had to be turned over to specialists for interpretation. Preliminary publications on birds that were studied by John Gould reflected some of the evidence for evolution. Darwin asked various specialists to describe the materials, and obtained a grant to edit and publish the Zoology of the Voyage. This work, which appeared in installments over a period of several years, contains Darwin's commentary on biogeography, behavior and other matters. Other collections, including those of plants and various groups of insects were treated separately. Darwin reserved some of the marine biological materials for himself, but he did not do much with them until after he got the geology out of the way.

DARWIN'S GEOLOGICAL CONTRIBUTIONS



Darwin dealt with the geology of the voyage in a few short papers and in a series of three books: The Structure and Distribution of Coral Reefs (1842; 2nd ed. 1874), Geological Observations on the Volcanic Islands…. (1844), and Geological Observations on South America (1846). Much of the material in these books is presented in more preliminary and less technical form in the Journal. Although Reefs was published first, the sequence of Darwin's research makes it more readily understood if the three are read in the opposite order than the chronological sequence in which they appeared.

Darwin's geological books are of considerable philosophical and methodological interest and cast much light on his intellect and its development. A particularly useful document for understanding how he became a geologist is a chapter entitled Geology that he wrote for the British Navy's Manual of Scientific Enquiry, edited by Sir John Herschel and first published in 1849. In addition to giving much practical advice, it advises the beginner on how to become a geologist. One can read it as a reflection of how Darwin taught himself to become a great master of that discipline. Among other things, Darwin suggests that one should read, then observe, and compare what one has seen with what one has read. This is important, for, contrary to the impression that one might get from the vast amount of factual detail that goes into his works, Darwin believed that theory should be one's guide in the conduct of scientific research. Not everybody shared that view in the early nineteenth century, so the following passage from a letter to Henry Fawcett dated September 18, 1861 is worth quoting: "About thirty years ago there was much talk that geologists ought only to observe and not theorise; and I well remember some one saying that at this rate a man might as well go into a gravel-pit and count the pebbles and describe the colours. How odd it is that anyone should not see that all observation must be for or against some view if it is to be of any service!" (Darwin and Seward, 1903.)

To understand Darwin's geological reasoning we need to consider some of the ideas of Lyell that influenced him. Lyell advocated a "steady-state" view of the world in agreement with his predecessors Hutton and Playfair. Indeed the notion of an eternal world that undergoes cyclical change, coming back to more or less the same condition, goes back to Aristotle's treatise Meteorologia. The earth might change through erosion in one place accompanied by deposition in another. That implied that the crust of the earth might move up and down and also that the areas exposed as land might occupy quite different positions with the passage of time. Lyell also thought that the living inhabitants of the earth differ from one another at different times. However, he did not believe that there is any sign of progressive, or unidirectional, change in the fossil record. He took it as a methodological assumption that in reconstructing the history of the past we should begin by invoking only

[page] 13

the sort of causes that are "now in operation," as he put it. That tended to rule out catastrophes, such as universal deluges, giving the terms "uniformitarianism" and "catastrophism" for the alternative positions. Catastrophes might have occurred, but the progress of science would be more effective if they were invoked only as a last resort. One thing that never changes, however, is the laws of nature. Any reconstruction of the past history of the earth must be consistent with the laws of nature, understood as regularities that must happen irrespective of time and place, such as the laws of gravity. Geology, like other historical sciences, creates explanatory narratives based on a combination of particular facts and nature's timeless uniformities.

Much of what Darwin was doing for South American geology was working out the sequences in which layers of rock (strata) were laid down. The basic intellectual instrument for such historical reconstruction is the "principle of superposition," which is attributed to the seventeenth-century Danish naturalist Steno. In the case of sandstone, for example, new layers can only be deposited on top of layers that already exist. There is no way in which water carrying sand can slip under a layer of rock and deposit a bed of sandstone in that position. Therefore, the younger strata overlie the older ones. There are all sorts of complications, not the least of which is that a whole series of strata can be overturned. However, there are additional principles for deciding "which way is up." A temporal succession of strata gives relative times, but it does not give the sort of absolute times that are provided in terms of number of years. Although the plants and animals that are present at any time differ from place to place, the same species often ranges over considerable areas, and the co-occurrence of such a species in deposits at different places is evidence that those deposits are contemporaneous. On the other hand, the fossils in older deposits are increasingly different from those in younger ones. Lyell reasoned that he could date the deposits approximately by determining the proportion of species that are still in existence. The larger the proportion of extant rather than extinct species, the newer the rocks. It was this kind of inference that Darwin was applying in much of his geological research, and understanding that approach makes it much easier to follow his reasoning.

Treating, as noted above, the geology of the voyage in a conceptual order rather than by year of publication, let us now consider its third volume, Geological Observations on South America, first published in 1846. It treats research that preceded that on islands and reefs and paved the way for it. The grand theme of the whole series is the gradual upheaval and subsidence of the land on a global scale, something that was very much in tune with Lyell's views. We should note at the beginning some later developments in the history of geology of which Darwin was unaware. Firstly, although the land rises and falls much as Darwin believed, so too does the level of the sea, partly as a result of glaciers forming and melting. Secondly, the land moves laterally, not just up and down. That aspect of the history of the earth was not well understood until the emergence of plate tectonics in the second half of the twentieth century. The earth's crust is made up of plates of rock that are continually being formed and destroyed. The subduction of one plate under another is a major reason for the formation of mountain chains, and it also accounts for areas of vulcanism and earthquakes in bands around the world. Darwin could see that there was a causal link between uplift and vulcanism. He explained it in terms of molten lava getting injected under rock. This is not exactly what happened, but it does not affect the correlation that he observed or the legitimacy of his coral reef theory.

Darwin begins with an account of uplift on the eastern coast of South America. He studied series of step-like terraces rising above sea level. These were associated with the shells of marine animals, indicating that they had formerly been at sea level. The shells were very much like those living at the time, but they were sometimes associated with the remains of extinct fossil mammals. The elevation seemed to have taken place gradually. He then discusses similar evidence from the western coast. He was present during the earthquake that rocked the region on February 20, 1835 and therefore was able to document an uplift of several feet. He also drew upon published accounts of a great earthquake in 1822. In a third chapter he discusses the related topic of erosion and deposition of sediment as well as the formation of valleys and salt deposits. The fourth chapter, on the Pampas formations, is of particular interest because it discusses the fossil mammals that helped to convince Darwin that evolution has occurred. The remains of large, extinct mammals were found together with shells of marine animal species that were still living on the nearby coast. Not only were they taxonomically indistinguishable, they seemed to be in the same relative proportions, indicating that the marine environ-

[page] 14

ment had remained much the same.

The fifth chapter deals with the older, Tertiary formations. Darwin established the relative dates of fossiliferous strata both by superposition and by the proportion of living species of shells in them to extinct ones. He gives some rather forced arguments for the temperature not having changed much. The chapter ends with a discussion on the incompleteness of the fossil record, a topic that Darwin discussed at great length in The Origin of Species. The sixth chapter discusses the igneous and metamorphic rocks and the topic of cleavage and foliation. The 7th and 8th (final) chapters deal with the geology of the Cordillera of the Andes. Darwin had crossed the Andes in late March and early April of 1835, and during that trip he made extensive drawings. He was able to document both subsidence and elevation over long periods of time. He explains why the fossil record is not as complete as was generally believed. And he urges the point that change has occurred gradually, step-wise, and over long periods of time.

The second volume of the geology of the voyage, published in 1844, was entitled Geological Observations on Volcanic Islands, with Brief Notices on the Geology of Australia and the Cape of Good Hope. At many times during the Beagle voyage Darwin had opportunity to study volcanic islands. Lyell had opposed the notion of von Buch and others that volcanic craters should be treated as "craters of elevation." According to this view a crater would begin as a sort of blister on the earth's surface and then would collapse leaving a depression at the center. Darwin provided further evidence that the craters had been gradually built up by deposits of lava. Lyell had suggested that coral atolls had formed on the rims of craters. Part of the Admiralty's instructions to FitzRoy had been to study such atolls with the end in mind of investigating such matters. During the course of the voyage Darwin reflected upon subsidence and elevation, and, while still in South America, formulated his own theory of coral formations. This interest helps one to form a more balanced view of his activities while in the Galapagos. The reader who wants to study the development of Darwin's thinking should realize from the outset that his observations are not presented in chronological order, even though St. Jago, the first island he visited and one that was revisited at the end of the voyage, is treated first. Rather the materials are arranged so as to show how volcanic islands are formed. He begins with islands that are close to continents and contain a substantial amount of sedimentary rock characteristic of such areas, and those that are more distant from the land and consist mainly of volcanic material. The distinction between continental and oceanic islands was fundamental to Darwin's island biogeography but he does not refer to that explicitly here.

ON CORAL REEFS

The first volume of the geology of the voyage, entitled The Structure and Distribution of Coral Reefs, was first published in 1842. A second edition, considerably revised, was published in 1876, and a third, posthumous, one in 1889. The second edition includes response to criticisms by various contemporary scientists, reflecting the fact that although the theory was immediately accepted by geologists it later came under fire from all sorts of quarters. It is no coincidence that much of the criticism came from persons, mainly zoologists, who were also critical of Darwin's evolutionary ideas. The debates continued until shortly after the Second World War, when soundings and drilling made it clear that Darwin's basic ideas were correct. Darwin's views, however, were supplemented, especially by the work of James Dwight Dana, Reginald A. Daly and William Morris Davis, and more recently by studies related to the modern theory of plate tectonics.

Coral Reefs begins with a brief introduction that explains the problem and defines his three classes of coral reefs. Fringing reefs are located next to the shore and often surround islands (Fig. 1A). Barrier reefs are separated from shore by a body of water called a lagoon that generally opens into the sea by channels (Fig. 1B). They are often capped by islets of land, and may encircle an entire island. In some cases there is no such island, but just a lagoon surrounded by a reef. Darwin briefly explains that the sequence is a developmental one, the result of corals having grown upward only in shallow water as the land has subsided. He then devotes three chapters to detailed descriptions of the three classes of reefs, beginning with atolls, and ending with fringing reefs. The first of these atolls is Keeling Atoll, which he and Fitzroy studied during the voyage of the Beagle. He includes a considerable amount of material on how the corals and other animals grow and interact with one another, and provides evidence that the archipelago has sunk and has the kind of shape that one would expect if corals (and other reef building organisms) had grown up on a sinking island. He compares the other known

examples of atolls before taking up the barrier reefs such as those off New Caledonia and the eastern coast of Australia. The chapter on fringing reefs begins with Mauritius, which Darwin had also visited when on the Beagle. He again compares quite a variety of reefs.

A separate chapter is devoted to the conditions that are favorable to the growth and prosperity of corals and reefs, and to their rate of growth and related topics. He was able to establish that reef-forming corals grow only in warm, shallow waters. He knew that they are carnivores, but the fact that reef-forming corals are largely dependent upon symbiotic algae in their tissues for their energy supply was not discovered or fully appreciated until around the middle of the twentieth century. The absence of coral formations in some warmer areas puzzled Darwin. Their limited ability to cope with sediment still seems a valid explanation. He did not however appreciate the effects of el niño events and other perturbations that make for the sort of unstable habitat in which corals do not flourish. Darwin's chapter on such physiological and ecological topics provided part of the explanation for the distribution of the reefs. The rest of the distribution pattern was due to the long term geological changes that had been taking place all over the world. He then relates the two by proposing that what kind of reef occurs in a given place depends upon whether the crust of the earth has been in the process of uplift or subsidence. Given his theory that subsidence is compensated for by uplift due to volcanic activity, the type of reef should correlate with it. Darwin makes this argument strikingly by means of a map in which the different types of reefs are shown to have the properties that this hypothesis predicts. The fringing reefs occur near to areas of volcanic activity, whereas the barrier reefs, and especially the atolls, tend to be located far from such areas. It is a fine example of Darwin's scientific method.

Darwin published some shorter geological papers that deserve mention. These include several in support of his and Lyell's interpretation of the transport of sediments and related topics. The possibility of extensive glaciation and its effects on the level of the sea became an active topic for investigation but Darwin was more or less on the losing side of that debate. His paper on the Parallel Roads of Glen Roy and Lochaber was an effort to explain some bench marks in Scotland. By analogy with what he had found in South America, he tried to explain them as the result of the rise of the land and its occasional erosion by the sea. It turned out that they were the product of lakes that were dammed by glaciers. Another geological topic that attracted his interest was the effects of earthworms in forming the soil and changing the landscape. He returned to that in has last book, supplemented by much later research on the behavior of the worms.

ON BARNACLES

When Darwin finished his geological works in 1846, he planned to write a few short papers on zoology based on specimens that he had collected during his voyage and then prepare his work on evolution for publication. That plan succeeded insofar as he published some short papers on flatworms and one on a little-known pelagic creature, the chaetognath Sagitta. One animal that interested him was an aberrant barnacle that did not fit into the existing schemes of classification. To describe it properly he needed to dissect and compare some other barnacles. One thing led to another, and he wound up revising the classification of the entire subclass Cirripedia and devoting a monograph to them well over a thousand pages long. I say "a" monograph in spite of the fact that he was compelled to publish the parts on fossil cirripedes

[page] 16

separately. This was because of the pettiness of the institutions that sponsored the publication.

The barnacle research delayed the publication of Darwin's evolutionary theory for some eight years. Many reasons have been given for the delay. The best of these is that he was obsessive about details in all of his scientific work and wanted to do the job as well as possible. The results are more easy to document. His monograph changed one of the least known groups of animals into one of the best known. It also established his reputation as a comparative anatomist, systematist and paleontologist, one who could speak with authority about all sorts of matters. It was not obvious to all his readers at the time that the Monograph was a book on evolutionary comparative anatomy but that is easy to make out in retrospect. Darwin even refers to the genealogical tree of these organisms. However, the evolutionism was only implicit, and the language could be read metaphorically. Darwin showed how the various groups of barnacles could be derived from common ancestors and produced a classification that is roughly consistent with that genealogy. He gave interesting examples, not all of which are now considered correct, of parts changing their function in the course of evolution. In some ways the most remarkable findings were the dwarf males that had evolved within the basically hermaphroditic group. His work on their reproduction led him to realize that hermaphrodites are not, as had been widely assumed, self-fertilizing animals, and consequently that sex is far more important than his contemporaries believed. This initiated Darwin's extensive research on sex, including much comparative and experimental work on plants. He realized that sex is somehow connected with variability, and for him one of the most important results of the barnacle research was the realization that natural populations are highly variable. Variation was exceedingly important for Darwin because it is a necessary condition for evolution by means of natural selection.

Readers of Darwin may reasonably defer, or omit altogether, reading the Monograph. It is not an easy book to read, even if one has taken a course on invertebrate zoology. However, one might want to sample some of the more accessible passages. The volume on living Lepadidae (stalked cirripedes) begins with some general material on the comparative anatomy and embryology of the group (pp. 1—66) that gives a fair idea of how Darwin thought that the barnacles originated and evolved. The next two hundred pages or so provide descriptions of various species that are not of much general interest. One might want to read the parts on the peculiar hermaphrodites, males and females, though the summary on pages 281 to 293 gives the main points and their implications. The section on the genus Lithotrya includes material on how these animals burrow that provides an interesting example of Darwin's evolutionary approach to functional anatomy and behavior. It might be best to read these passages after some of the later works in which the evolutionary thinking is explicit. The volume on living Balanidae and other cirripedes begins with an introduction that explains the anatomy. Well worth reading are the discussion on pages 9 to 22 on the general morphology of these animals and the one on their sexual peculiarities that follows on pages 23 to 30. There are further discussions on the females and dwarf males of the burrowing barnacles Alcippe and Cryptophialus.

EVOLUTION AND NATURAL SELECTION: THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES

After completing the barnacle monograph, Darwin began to work up his materials on evolution and natural selection. He gathered new information from the literature, through his own experiments, and by requesting it from his informants. Although most of these informants did not know what Darwin was up to, he did confide in his botanist friend Joseph Dalton Hooker and later in another botanist, Asa Gray of Harvard University. Among the many persons with whom he corresponded was Alfred Russel Wallace, who in September of 1855 published a paper entitled "On the law which has regulated the introduction of new species." Darwin told Wallace that he was working on a theory, but did not say what it was, and added that it would be some time before he published. In June, 1858 Darwin was working on a long book manuscript entitled Natural Selection, when a letter arrived from Wallace, along with a manuscript of a paper on evolution by natural selection. This naturally created quite a stir. The upshot was that a joint publication was assembled and read to the Linnaean Society on July 1, establishing Darwin and Wallace as co-discoverers. It appeared in print some time in August. Wallace was in the Malay Archipelago at the time and did not find out about this arrangement until much later. He never objected to it.

Whatever we may think of what took place, the joint publication is readily available and well worth reading. It begins with an introductory letter by Lyell

[page] 17

and Hooker providing a reasonably accurate account of the circumstances. There follows a section of a chapter from Darwin's "Essay" of 1844. It seems to have been edited slightly, but the changes are minor and do not affect the content. At the end there is a paragraph on sexual selection, something that had not occurred to Wallace, and this is important because it establishes that Darwin's theory was somewhat more general than Wallace's. There follows a brief explanation of natural selection that was included with a letter to Gray dated September 5, 1857. It too seems to have been slightly edited but without any substantive changes. At the end is a discussion on the principle of the divergence of character, which explains the diversification of life in ecological terms. Although one commentator suggested that Darwin took the principle of the divergence of character from Wallace's manuscript, there is no trace of it in the original. It was something that Darwin thought of in the 1850s, so it is present in the letter but not in the "Essay." Wallace's section is very well written and easier to follow than Darwin's terse accounts. Wallace emphasized the selection of varieties as well as organisms, and he seems not to have made the distinction as clearly as Darwin did. Both Darwin and Wallace emphasized the analogy between artificial and natural selection. They focused mainly on selection as a mechanism for producing adaptation and said very little about the long-term effects and larger consequences. For that reason, and perhaps others, the paper had little immediate effect on Darwin's contemporaries, other than indicating that something was in the works. The theory had to be fully explicated before it would be understood.

Darwin soon began to write an "abstract" of his unfinished book manuscript. It ultimately became The Origin of Species. The first edition of the Origin is probably the best choice from the reader's point of view. It is the original statement of Darwin's views, and later editions became complicated as he responded to various criticisms. Therefore we will begin with an examination of the first edition and afterward consider what changes were made in the later ones.

Darwin's claim, in the Introduction, that he worked by patiently accumulating facts before allowing himself to speculate must be taken with a block of salt. Rather than following the "Baconian" approach that was widely popular in his day, he took theory as his guide, using the facts to test hypotheses. The approach that he used was more in line with what has been called the hypothetico-deductive approach, or as some would say, the argument to the best explanation. The rationale of his "one long argument" is that evolution by natural selection explains a wide range of phenomena that are otherwise inexplicable in scientific terms. Throughout the work he opposes his hypothesis to special creation, but he also provides reasons for rejecting the views of Lamarck and others. The first chapter explains the process of natural selection using the analogy of artificial selection of domesticated animals and plants. The reason for the analogy is not just to make the mechanism seem plausible. Rather it is to establish selection combined with variation as something more than purely conjectural. Selection really does produce change: it is a vera causa. (Whether it suffices to account for the diversification of life from one or a few ancestral forms is of course another matter.) In addition to selection Darwin invokes correlated growth or variability, something that later came to be discussed under the rubric of pleiotropy. Darwin knew, for example, that white cats with blue eyes tend to be deaf. So somebody trying to produce a breed of white cats with blue eyes might inadvertently get ones that were deaf as well. This was one of several mechanisms that Darwin invoked in addition to natural selection. (Others are use and disuse, inherited habit, and sexual selection.) He treats the breeds of domesticated animals and plants as analogous to what we would call incipient species.

In Chapter II Darwin considers variation in nature, but his main concern is to show that there is no clear break between species and varieties. Speciation as he saw it is a gradual process, and one would only expect an unbroken continuum in the degree of distinctness. As he put it, there would be no "essential" difference between species and varieties. This discussion can be confusing to the reader and for more than one reason. We now distinguish between 1) the species category, in other words, "species" in the abstract, and 2) particular species taxa, such as Homo sapiens, which are generally considered concrete populations, composite wholes or, in other words, individuals in a technical philosophical sense. In discussing whether taxonomic groups are "real" it makes an enormous difference whether we are talking about the distinction between species and subspecies on the one hand, or something like Homo sapiens or Drosophila pseudoobscura on the other. Furthermore, in this section, Darwin is discussing the species concepts of other authors, whereas his own view of such matters is expounded in a later chapter. The fact that

genera, species and varieties have the same hierarchical pattern of diversity of groups within groups makes sense if and only if they are all stages in a single process.

Darwin explains what he calls the struggle for existence, in other words, competition in Chapter III. He takes care to point out that what really matters is reproductive success. In order to do that he develops the basic principles of modern ecology, which is hardly surprising given that he founded that science in its modern form. (The word ecology was coined by Darwin's German follower Ernst Haeckel.) One of the more important points that he makes is that the competition will be most severe between close relatives.

Darwin explains natural selection, sexual selection, and evolution in the long term in Chapter IV. Natural selection leads organisms to diversify and to occupy different places in the natural economy. Darwin's notion of a place in the economy of nature is roughly equivalent to that of a niche in the sense that the term was used by such later ecologists as Elton and Gause, who derived much of their thinking from him. In a very important passage, Darwin notes that natural selection cannot modify the structure of one species solely for the good of another. That kind of "altruism" he argues does not and cannot exist. One merit of a good theory is that it makes strong predictions like that, ones that may have been quite unexpected. Sexual selection is only briefly discussed, but it is crucial to the argument. If all that really matters is out-reproducing organisms of one's own species, then it makes sense that some features would have no other function, and even be deleterious to the welfare of that species. Darwin saw the combat between males and efforts to woo the females as examples of precisely such maladaptation. Again, this is a crucial move, and one that has often been misunderstood. Darwin believed that there are three kinds of selection: artificial, sexual and natural. His theory made different predictions for each of these, and sexual selection was therefore compelling evidence for selection theory in general. He gives a few details about natural selection that are developed in later works on pollination and other topics, including the previously unexpected vast amount of sexuality in the natural world. Then he proposes that competition over long periods of time will cause organisms to diversify while the intermediate forms will often become extinct. The result is a pattern that relates the taxonomic hierarchy with its groups within groups and the gaps that often separate them to the competitive process. The tree diagram makes sense of taxonomy in a way that creation does not.

In Chapter V, Darwin discusses the laws of variation. One of the philosophical points that he seeks to make in this chapter is that variation is not (as is often said) random, in the sense that one change is just as likely as any other. It displays its own laws, or perhaps it would be better to say rules. Among these regularities he gives the principle of the correlation of growth mentioned above. He shows how natural selection makes sense out of rudimentary organs and throwbacks or atavisms. This chapter is really about embryology, though that may not be obvious. Modern genetics, with its notions of pleiotropy and the like, did not come into existence until after the rediscovery of Mendel's work around 1900. Darwin's way of approaching these matters looks remarkably like the kind of "evo-devo" that became popular around 1980.

Darwin considers what he calls difficulties with respect to his theory in Chapter VI, and indeed continues the same theme in the next four. We need to avoid getting the impression that he was immunizing his theory from criticism or explaining away unpleasant facts. On the contrary, the difficulties in question played an important strategic role in his argument. Much as he argued that there were indeed phenomena that his theory could not explain but that such do not exist, he showed that the difficulties in question were more apparent rather than real. Indeed, he was often able to turn an argument against his theory on its head, thereby converting an argument against it into one in favor of it. Raising objections and shooting them down was an effective rhetorical ploy. He gives the stock example of the vertebrate eye. He says that his theory would break down if such an organ could not have been formed by small steps, again denying the claim. He explains why not all characters are adaptive.

In the sixth edition of the Origin, Darwin added another chapter to allow for extensive rebuttal of his critics, but the order of the chapters remained the same. Chapter VII (VIII in the 6th edition) deals with instincts, phenomena that some of his contemporaries had regarded as miraculous. Darwin shows for instance that a bee does not have to be a mathematician to create a hexagonal cell of wax. But the most compelling example is that of the neuter castes of social insects such as ants, bees and termites. How could such colonies evolve through natural selection when the workers are sterile? Under ordinary circum-

[page] 21

stances natural selection should not favor sterility. Darwin reasoned that in social insects the unit that gets selected is the family. He also invokes breeding from the same stock, or what later came to be called "kin selection." Chapter VIII deals with the sterility of hybrids. Any degree of sterility would tend to decrease an organism's reproductive success, and natural selection would therefore prevent it from evolving. Darwin answers that by maintaining that such sterility is not an adaptation, but rather an incidental byproduct of some other change. Chapters IX and X address the imperfection of the fossil record. As a leading geologist and an expert on fossil barnacles Darwin was able to speak with great authority on that topic. Negative evidence in general is to be viewed with skepticism, and in the case of missing fossils Darwin provides reasons for thinking that the fossil record is even more fragmentary than had been believed. Fossils are formed only under favorable conditions and they often get destroyed. As it turned out, the point that the evidence was negative created a strong incentive for paleontologists to search for more specimens, and the fossil record became considerably less fragmentary even in Darwin's lifetime. Darwin also shows how the fossil record makes sense in view of his diversity model and argues that his theory explains the apparent progress that has occurred in the organization of plants and animals in geological time. Such progressive trends were something that Lyell had denied.

Darwin proceeds in Chapters XI and XII to consider a much less fragmentary body of evidence: biogeography. It was biogeography that first convinced Darwin that evolution has in fact occurred, and biogeography was the most compelling evidence for it in his day. It remains so in ours. The kind of biogeography that was practiced by Alexander von Humboldt attempted to relate distribution patterns to climate and other physical conditions of life and that perspective has never been abandoned altogether by biogeographers and ecologists. But that approach was ahistorical, whereas descent with modification, with taxonomic groups conceived of as branches of a genealogical tree, provided the basis for an evolutionary approach to the subject. Animals and plants have moved about as they have diversified, and their ability to do so has been limited by barriers. Terrestrial animals and plants find it difficult to cross bodies of water, deserts and mountain ranges. Marine ones would be blocked by land masses. By analyzing the different kinds of barriers and relating these to the ability of the animals and plants to move about, that aspect of the history of life could be reconstructed. Species could be traced to their point of origin. Darwin considers the means by which organisms may have crossed barriers. He had experimented on the effects of seawater on the seeds of terrestrial plants, and found that many of them could survive for long periods. His discussion on the glacial period accounts for many distribution patterns in terms of changes in the climate. Darwin's delay in publishing resulted in Edward Forbes getting credit for some ideas about glaciation and plant distribution.

It is particularly in Chapter XII that Darwin shows how many facts make sense only in terms of evolution. The fresh water and marine organisms show characteristic patterns of distribution as a result of their mechanisms of dispersal. But the peculiar biotas of oceanic islands provide perhaps the most compelling evidence. Frogs and other amphibians, he points out, have very little capacity for surviving in seawater either as eggs or adults, and they are absent from oceanic islands. And the older islands and island groups are often inhabited by groups of closely related species that occur nowhere else (endemics). Thus, for example, his observations on the Galapagos birds are easily explained. This chapter marks the beginnings of insular biogeography, a topic that was pursued to great effect by Darwin's supporters, especially Joseph Hooker and Alfred Russel Wallace.

In Chapter XIII Darwin argues for his version of evolutionary theory by showing how it makes sense of classification and the data upon which it had been based. His biogeographical arguments depended upon uniting the data of distribution with the existing classification systems, which his predecessors had not interpreted as having evolutionary significance. He proposes that the Linnean hierarchy with its groups within groups is intelligible on the basis of each group being derived from a common ancestor. He explains why characters important in classification are not necessarily the ones that are most important in the life of the organisms, and why larger groups of animals seem to be derived from a common plan. He likewise explains why embryology provides so much valuable evidence for classification at higher levels. In this connection he discusses how natural selection affects the modification of the entire life cycle of the organisms, and in so doing created the approach to evolutionary developmental biology that was taken up by Fritz Müller, Ernst Haeckel and many others. The idea that evolution occurs by a modification of devel-

[page] 22

opmental processes is one of Darwin's most important contributions to biology. More than just a way of reconstructing evolutionary history, it is fundamental to his views on variation. In discussing rudimentary organs such as the teeth in the embryos of whales that are toothless as adults, Darwin argues again that these at last become plainly intelligible as traces of earlier conditions.

In Chapter XIV Darwin briefly recapitulates his main arguments, dismissing the objections and emphasizing the explanatory value of the theory. The attentive reader may note that although natural selection has been explained, the arguments for evolution are the more compelling ones. Darwin suggests that the dead weight of tradition is apt to create much resistance to his views. Then he switches his argument strategy and predicts a major revolution in the life of the intellect. Psychology, he says, will be based on a new foundation. This follows what is perhaps the greatest understatement in the history of English literature: "Light will be thrown on the origin of man and his history." Finally he ends with an eloquent passage implicitly comparing his accomplishment to that of Newton.

The first edition of the Origin was published late in 1859 and immediately sold out. The second, which appeared a few weeks later, was not much changed, although some minor errors were corrected. Darwin also added a reference to the Creator. It is uncertain whether he personally considered this particular emendation an improvement. The book of course created an immense uproar. In later editions, Darwin responded to criticisms and incorporated much new material. The details of the emendations are perhaps of minor interest to the readers of this Guide, but it seems a good idea to discuss some of the most important changes that Darwin made in later editions. Not the least reason for doing so is that it shows how the book itself evolved.

To the third edition of the Origin, finished in early 1861, Darwin added an "Historical Sketch" discussing his predecessors. It was modified in later editions, and the total number of these predecessors was brought up to thirty. Some of them are more than dubious, for example Aristotle and Lorenz Oken, both of whom believed in spontaneous generation. Erasmus Darwin, Lamarck, both Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire and his son Isidore, Herbert Spencer, and their followers were committed to evolution. Others, as Darwin points out, made statements that were vague or noncommittal. A few, such as Patrick Matthew, seem to have thought of natural selection, but they neither perceived its significance nor worked out its implications. Darwin says much about Richard Owen, some of whose claims, he believed, were misleading and indeed downright dishonest. It is clear from his publications that Owen straddled the fence about various issues and was not always forthright in his arguments. The "Sketch" was somewhat revised in the fourth and fifth editions. There were quite a number of other changes in the third edition. One of the most interesting is Darwin's response to objections to the use of the term "natural selection." Much understanding had arisen because of his language, he says, but metaphor ought not to be taken literally. He also clarified his views on progress.

The fourth edition of the Origin, written in early 1866, was extensively revised. A great deal had happened in the six years that had passed since the first was published. Evolution had become a very popular topic of discussion and not just among the scholarly community. The book had been translated into several languages and was well known all over the world. But most important, Darwin had attracted an enthusiastic following, and one that included many able scientists as well as informants who were happy to provide him with the information he needed. Darwin now incorporated the work of Wallace on geographical distribution and of Bates on mimicry in butterflies. He revised and enlarged the section on embryology in the light of the contributions of Fritz Müller and John Lubbock. And he filled in many details. Darwin was now taking the offensive.

The fifth edition of the Origin, finished in early 1869, was the first to use Herbert Spencer's expression "the survival of the fittest." It is also the first to discuss Ernst Haeckel's notions about phylogeny. By this time Darwin had a strong following in Germany. He was also getting help from paleontology, and cites the contributions of Gaudry and of Huxley. The fossil record was becoming less and less of a problem. So far as the scientific community was concerned, the battle for evolution was over. The question was no longer whether evolution has happened, but how and why.

To the sixth (1872) edition, which was the last, Darwin appended a glossary. It was not written by Darwin himself, but by William S. Dallas, and to what extent Darwin approved of it is not quite clear. A more important addition was an entire chapter (Chapter VII) on "miscellaneous objections" to natural selection. Although some of this chapter is revised

[page] 23

from the previous edition, much of it is new. Darwin answers objections that had been raised by several eminent scientists. But most of the chapter is directed against the arguments of St. George Mivart, especially in his book On the Genesis of Species. Mivart, an able vertebrate anatomist, was a Roman Catholic convert. He tried to come up with a version of evolutionary biology that to some extent accommodated his own philosophical and religious opinions. Ultimately he was excommunicated. Darwin's strategy was to take Mivart very seriously indeed, portraying him as one who had marshaled every argument against natural selection that he and others had thought of, and with "admirable art and force." He then proceeded to demolish all of Mivart's arguments. Darwin and his followers could now proclaim victory and another edition of the Origin would not be needed.

ON ORCHIDS

Darwin's next book, entitled On the Various Contrivances by which British and Foreign Orchids are Fertilised by Insects, and on the Good Effects of Intercrossing, was published in 1862. A second, significantly revised, edition, with a slightly different title, appeared in 1877. Since completing the Origin Darwin had become increasingly active in research on various aspects of floral biology, the outgrowth of his interests in pollination, fertilization, hybridization and sex, and had begun publishing shorter papers on such topics. Orchids was the first of several books on the reproduction and physiology of plants. The book deals with the symbiosis and coadaptation of flowers and the insects that pollinate them. As such it was very important in establishing the science of pollination ecology, for the book inspired a great deal of empirical research. It has considerable relevance from the point of view of scientific methodology, for it provides good examples of how a biologist can ascertain the functions of parts by experimenting and showing how the flowers are minutely adjusted with the effect of transferring pollen from one organism to another. It also suggests how an historical approach to such questions can facilitate investigation. But it has deeper philosophical significance for it addresses the very notion of teleology, or purposefulness, in organic beings that Darwin overthrew. Discussion of that topic has been confused in the philosophical literature, and we need to make some important distinctions. The notion of "teleology" or "purpose" makes sense where something results from the activities of an agent with intentions, especially conscious ones. Before Darwin it seemed perfectly reasonable to attribute the marvelous adaptations of plants and animals, including ones that we now know do not really exist, to God. Indeed, such adaptations served as the basis for the "argument from design," which was thought to justify our belief in Him. Natural theology, as distinct from revealed theology, was an important part of a clergyman's training when Darwin was preparing for that vocation. He was much impressed by William Paley's exposition of it in his book on natural theology, in which it was argued that if one finds a watch, it implies the existence of a watchmaker. By analogy, one has to draw the same conclusion for animals and plants. As Paley put it, there cannot be contrivance without a contriver. The title of Darwin's book is, in fact, ironic, for he shows how natural selection can produce a marvelous range of adaptations so that no contriver is necessary. Indeed, the contrivances look more like contraptions. Darwin compared his book to the series of works on natural theology called the Bridgewater Treatises (On the Power, Wisdom and Goodness of God, as Manifested in the Creation), after the nobleman who endowed them. Of course it had the opposite intent. At the present time it is unfortunate that many authors still use such terms as "contrivance" and "design" when speaking of organic adaptations. In so doing they may have an excuse, insofar as such terms might be used metaphorically. But such language confuses lay persons and using it is intellectually irresponsible unless one really believes that supernatural agency is somehow responsible for the data of biology.

The other philosophical problem has to do with ambiguities in the way that philosophers have used the word "teleology." That term has come down to us from pre-Darwinian times, and has served as a rubric for all kinds of things, including intentional behavior, adaptation, function in the sense of how mechanisms work, and function in the sense of the role a part plays in the life of an organism. It now seems reasonable to speak of the function of a part as the role it currently plays in the life of an organism, and of adaptation as the process of attaining fitness, through natural selection or perhaps other mechanisms. The notion of a function as being what was selected for in the past does not work very well. Organs change their functions quite readily, and organisms are always evolving new ways to put them to work.

In Darwin's day, there was a controversy as to whether anatomists should explain the properties of

[page] 24

organisms in terms of formal or final causes as Aristotelians have called them. One faction, which included the poet Goethe and the German Naturphilosophen, maintained that the only thing that matters is purely formal properties of animals and plants, such as their symmetry. The other faction, which is associated with Georges Cuvier and his many followers, maintained that what really matters is the final causes, which Cuvier defined not in terms of purpose but in terms of the conditions of existence. It was a kind of physiological necessity according to which, for example, a carnivorous animal has to have the wherewithal to subdue prey. There is obviously no reason why an anatomist cannot study organisms from both points of view. But the term "teleologist" in this connection, meant somebody who explained anatomy only in terms of "final" causes. It has sometimes been said that Darwin was a "teleologist" on the ground that he studied function as well as form. But in terms of the original controversy he definitely was not, and in view of his own philosophy the discussion is anachronistic. Darwin produced a new approach to anatomy, in which the versions of Platonism of the formalists and Aristotelianism of the finalists were both deprived of scientific legitimacy. Darwin firmly and explicitly rejects the interpretation of homology in terms of ideal types, archetypal patterns and the like, and says that the goal of comparative anatomy is the reconstruction of common ancestors that really existed in the natural world. A remark on rudimentary organs (Orchids, ed. II p. 203) is well worth quoting in this connection: "At a period not far distant, naturalists will hear with surprise, perhaps with derision, that grave and learned men formerly maintained that such useless organs were not remnants retained by inheritance, but were specially created and arranged in their proper places like dishes on a table (this is the simile of a distinguished botanist) by an Omnipotent hand ‘to complete the scheme of nature.'" (Incidentally, the botanist was Alphonse de Candolle.)

Darwin changed his views on form and function significantly by the time he did his work on orchids. Although he had included a lot of functional thinking in his barnacle monograph, he went along with the notion that classification is based largely on "trifling" characters as he put it. But in Orchids he takes pain to show that what appears to us to be of no physiological significance may be of crucial importance in fertilization. Therefore one must not presuppose that a part has no function, merely because none is obvious. On the other hand, Darwin was not a Panglossian adaptationist, who, like Leibniz and the philosopher Dr. Pangloss in Voltaire's Candide, believed that this is the best of all possible worlds. Again, the contrivances look more like contraptions. Darwin showed that the properties of orchid flowers are the result of a long, historically contingent process. What has happened has depended upon the nature of the ancestors and the accidents of history. Organs have changed their functions, while often retaining vestiges of their former ones. Studying organisms from that point of view was a great novelty in Darwin's approach to anatomy and physiology. It led to his follower Anton Dohrn proposing the principle of the succession of functions (Funktionswechsel) as an investigative tool.

Aside from such philosophical background, Orchids is a straight-forward description of the flowers and the means by which pollen is transferred from one of them to another of the same species. Darwin discusses his predecessors, including Christian Conrad Sprengel, whose book Das Entdeckte Geheimniss der Natur im Bau und in der Befruchtung der Blumen (The Mystery of Nature Revealed in the Structure and Fertilization of Flowers) he felt had received insufficient recognition. Evidently the book was called to his attention by the botanist Robert Brown soon after Darwin's return from the Beagle voyage. The first edition of Orchids created an immense amount of interest, especially among botanists, and gave rise to a vast literature devoted to the biology of pollination. Those who helped to develop that branch of knowledge included a disproportinate number of those scientists who were exceptions to the rule that Darwin's contemporaries accepted evolution but not natural selection. These included Fritz Müller and his brother Hermann, as well as Joseph Hooker and Asa Gray. The burgeoning literature led Darwin to publish a supplementary review in 1869, and a second edition in 1872. This edition provided much additional descriptive material and corrected some of Darwin's earlier interpretations. However, the basic treatment of the subject remained the same. Because it suggests how Darwin's ideas developed, perhaps the second edition is the best choice for most readers.

FERTILIZATION IN PLANTS AND RELATED TOPICS

Although the next of Darwin's books to be pub-

[page] 25

lished (in 1868) was The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication, it seems best to follow a conceptual order rather than a chronological one, and discuss two of his botanical works that, like Orchids, have to do with fertilization and related topics. These appeared at about the same time (November 10, 1876 and July 9, 1877) and again, for conceptual reasons it seems best to reverse the chronological order. This sequence is further justified because Darwin's book The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same Species (1877) was preceded by quite a number of shorter publications on the same range of topics, and the book reiterates much of that already-published material. The Effects of Cross and Self Fertilisation in the Vegetable Kingdom (1876) presents the results of an experimental investigation carried out over a period of about eleven years.

The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same Species was first published in 1877. A second edition appeared in 1880. Whereas Orchids emphasizes adaptations that facilitate getting pollen from one flower to another, Flowers is mainly about adaptations that favor outcrossing. Darwin's work on barnacles, which are hermaphroditic animals, led him to the conclusion that self-fertilization is deleterious and that hermaphrodites at least occasionally cross with other animals of the same species. For some reason outbreeding is advantageous. He compared some of the sexual arrangements in barnacles to those of plants. When he began to study plants he realized that outbreeding is even more important than he had realized. Before we go on, however, we need to explain some of the technical terminology. In zoology, an hermaphrodite is an animal that has the reproductive organs of both the male and the female sex in a single organism. Sometimes male and female organs are functional and present at the same time, in which case the animal is said to be a simultaneous hermaphrodite. If it changes sex, it is a sequential hermaphrodite. If male first, then female, it is a protandrous hermaphrodite; if female first, them male, it is a protogynous hermaphrodite. An animal with separate sexes, like ourselves, is a gonochorist. Some animals, such as oysters, switch back and forth, and are called alternating hermaphrodites. But sex life gets much more complicated in colonial animals and plants, where each zooid or flower may have one sex or two, and so too may the entire animal colony or flowering plant. The picturesque and metaphorical nomenclature, which, as Darwin remarks, goes back to Linnaeus, is based on treating the plant as a house and the flowers as beds. A monoecious plant is one that is both male and female, but the flowers are either male or female; the male and female parts live in the same house but occupy different beds. A dioecious plant is one in which all the flowers of a given plant are either male or female; the male and female parts occupy separate beds in different houses. An hermaphroditic plant is one in which all the flowers are both male and female; the male organs occupy the same beds with the female ones, and they all live in the same house. Things can get very complicated, because, for example, a species can consist of hermaphrodite plants together with some that have only male flowers in which case it is androdioecious (males in different houses).

This terminology reflects the complexity of nature. But Darwin found that reproductive biology in plants is even more complicated that that. Whether or not an hermaphrodite is able to self-fertilize, a separate-sexed animal or flower is unable to fertilize itself. Darwin discovered that in certain plants each flower has both male and female parts (anthers and pistils) but these parts are so arranged that crossing can only take place with flowers that have a different anatomy, so that there is something analogous to two sexes among the hermaphrodites. The plants are dimorphic. Then he found that there may be three different anatomical arrangements, such that we have something like three sexes in the same hermaphroditic species (trimorphic plants).

The arrangement was such that it favored a flower of each of the two or three morphs fertilizing a plant of a different morph. However, by accident or by experimental design, pollen could be transferred to a plant of the same morph. The former Darwin called "legitimate" crosses, the latter "illegitimate" ones. He undertook a long series of experiments in which he produced illegitimate crosses by transferring pollen to the adaptively inappropriate place. The goal was to find out to what extent an illegitimate cross might have an adverse effect, such as fewer or smaller seeds or offspring that were small in size or of low fertility. He showed that the illegitimate crosses were much like those between different species, sometimes producing no offspring at all. Darwin did not believe however that such sterility was an adaptation. Rather, he considered it an incidental consequence of the arrangement that furthered crossing. He was unable to conceive of a way in which selection could favor sterility as such, for it would lead to a reduced number of offspring.

[page] 26

Another case of floral dimorphism that interested Darwin was cleistogamic flowers. The Greek roots from which this term was coined literally mean "closed marriage." The flowers do not open up and admit pollen or pollinators, but fertilize themselves, and seem to be specially adapted to reproducing in this manner. However, they occasionally open up, and therefore some outcrossing does take place. Darwin took this as another example of the fact that on occasion, at least, hermaphrodites cross with conspecific organisms. It confirmed the "Knight-Darwin Law" according to which "Nature abhors perpetual self-fertilization."

The Effects of Cross and Self Fertilisation in the Vegetable Kingdom was published in November of 1876. Although it was reprinted several times, the book never appeared as a second edition. As he explains in the introduction, Darwin began his experiments on inbreeding as a result of work carried out for another purpose. He was surprised to observe that the offspring of self-fertilized plants of Linaria vulgaris were smaller and less vigorous than those that resulted from outcrossed ones. He then compared self-fertilized and cross-fertilized carnations (Dianthus caryophyllus) and other plants and got the same result. Therefore he carried out experiments over a period of eleven years, in which he compared the results of cross-fertilization and self-fertilization in a wide variety of plants (fifty-seven species, in fifty-two genera and thirty families). The experiments clearly showed that the products of cross-fertilization were larger and more vigorous than those of self-fertilization. Further experiments showed that the out-crossed plants were competitively superior. They also tended to live longer, and were more fertile.

In Chapter X, Darwin considers how plants are structurally and physiologically adapted so as to further cross-fertilization. Often this involves interaction with insects or birds, and Darwin shows how much of floral anatomy is explicable in terms of attracting such pollinators. The flowers also have many adaptations that ensure their being fertilized by pollen from a different plant. These include dioecy (male and female flowers on different plants) and dichogamy (sequential hermaphroditism, either protandry with the male flowers functioning first or protogyny with the female flowers functioning first). And then there is prepotency, which means that a flower is disposed to be fertilized by pollen from another plant and perhaps self-fertilizes only as a last resort. Plants that have switched to pollination by wind have flowers that are quite different from those which are pollinated by insects. In general then, comparative biology points in the same direction that the experiments do.

Strengthening the comparative treatment, Darwin devotes Chapter XI to the biology of the insects that serve as pollinators. This chapter might be read as if it were a separate essay by those who are not inclined to read the whole book. A particularly interesting topic from an evolutionary point of view is the "flower constancy" of bees. When a bee starts foraging she tends to continue visiting flowers of the same species. This habit benefits the plants, for pollen from another species would be of no use to them. Yet Darwin emphasizes the point that this benefit to the plants is not the reason for the bees having flower constancy. Darwin explains the phenomenon in terms of the principle of the division of labor. Although not mentioning Adam Smith, who explained such matters in The Wealth of Nations, Darwin suggests that the bees, like humans, save time by not switching from one task to another. Another topic discussed in this chapter is the bees obtaining nectar by chewing holes in the flowers. The result is that the flowers are not pollinated, in spite of having presented the bees with a reward for their services.

Given what was later learned about genetics, we now understand why it is advantageous to plants and other organisms to avoid self-fertilization and other causes of inbreeding. Among other things, inbreeding leads to the expression of deleterious recessive genes. Darwin of course had no knowledge of genetics. Nonetheless he was able to come up with a close approximation by observing the effects of cross and self-fertilization. One of his major conclusions is that self-fertilization is advantageous insofar as it maximizes the number of offspring produced. Another is that cross-fertilization is advantageous because it brings together parents that have become different as a result of having lived under different conditions or varied spontaneously. And finally, "the injury from self-fertilisation follows from the want of such differentiation in the sexual elements." Darwin's thinking was affected by his belief in the direct action of the environment in producing evolutionary change. He thought that breeders of domesticated animals and plants could obtain the benefits of outbreeding by keeping their stock in different localities. His remarks on the effects of inbreeding in human beings are particularly interesting, given that he and his wife were first cousins. He thought that people having different habits of life would tend to offset the effects of mar-

[page] 27

rying close relatives. The shortcomings of Darwin's treatment of hermaphroditism also are apparent from hindsight. He thought that hermaphroditism exists because it allows self-fertilization, and gonochorism because it prevents it. And yet, as he points out, other arrangements would do the job better. Twentieth century researchers developed an elaborate body of economic theory that predicts the conditions under which the sexes are separate or combined, and when it is advantageous to switch from one sex to the other.

As a parting shot, Darwin discusses fertility and sterility in relation to species concepts. He maintains that there is no essential difference between species and varieties. Crossing two organisms and finding that they produce no offspring or ones that are sterile had been used as evidence that they are of different species. But Darwin was very critical of that criterion. His work on dimorphic and trimorphic plants showed that the same kind of block to reproduction occurs within species. And whether a cross between two species or morphs is fertile may depend upon which species or morph produces the pollen. In modern biology reproductive barriers are understood to keep species separate. But it is not a simple matter of whether various organisms can or cannot cross. Rather, the species are reproductively isolated. So Darwin's insights here remain valuable, even though the modern view is that species differ qualitatively, not just quantitatively, from varieties.

VARIATION OF ANIMALS AND PLANTS UNDER DOMESTICATION

The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication was first published on January 30, 1868. A second printing, with some changes was published in February. A second edition, substantially revised in some places, appeared in 1875. In the Origin Darwin had used the analogy between artificial selection and natural selection to lend plausibility to his theory and to make it easier to understand. This theme is still present in the Variation and Darwin develops it in considerable detail. Likewise, variability is a necessary condition for selection, whether artificial or natural, to effect change. In his introduction Darwin states that he intended to produce a book on variability in a state of nature. That plan never materialized. The Variation was partly made up of chapters that Darwin had written of his long book entitled Natural Selection that was in progress when Wallace's more or less independent discovery forced a change in plans. At the time when the introduction to the first edition of the Variation was written, Darwin had not yet abandoned his plan to write a series of books expanding upon the Origin. In the introduction to the second edition, Darwin says he still hopes to write a book on variation in nature, but he quietly dropped the plan for later volumes in the series. This analysis is based on the first edition but in passing discusses some interesting changes that were made in the second. Which edition one chooses will probably make little difference for most readers. The book is over nine hundred pages long, and often quite tedious.

Darwin's interest in variation was much deeper than the need to document its existence. Rather, he sought to understand variation as a process, to explain its mechanisms, and to get at its underlying causes. These causes were basically embryological ones and his approach owed a great deal to the work of Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire and his son Isidore Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire on developmental abnormalities (teratology). The idea was that normal and abnormal development are variations on the same theme and obey the same laws. A survey of the diversity that had arisen through selection of animals and plants would show how structure has been modified by changes in the underlying developmental processes. It also offered to reveal what causes such changes to occur in the first place and cast some light on such topics as inheritance. Although Darwin's efforts to come up with a mechanism for inheritance were not very successful, he did remarkably well at dealing with later stages in the chain of causality. To the extent that we can compare Darwin's work with modern genetics, we can say that he made a splendid contribution to developmental genetics but was largely stumped by transmission genetics. At the end of the book Darwin proposes a theory called "pangenesis" that accounts, among other things, for the inheritance of acquired characters. Because that phenomenon turns out not to exist and the theory that he proposed turned out to be far from the mark, the book has largely been neglected and often its merits have been overlooked.

The introduction provides a brief summary of Darwin's main ideas about evolution, including his philosophical position with respect to scientific method. Most of the first volume consists of a survey of selected groups of domesticated animals and plants. It is full of Darwin's original observations and material supplied by his many informants as well as citations of the scholarly and popular literature. From

[page] 28

the fact that he passes systematically from one group of organisms to another, one might get the impression that Darwin is simply cataloguing observations that relate to his theory. A careful reading, however, shows that he introduces new topics as he proceeds from one group to another. Some groups are more appropriate than others for addressing a particular problem and Darwin structures his exposition accordingly.

Chapter I deals with domestic dogs and cats. Dogs are the first animals to have been domesticated and they have a wide variety of breeds. They therefore provide excellent materials for discussing such problems as whether the various breeds have been separately derived from different wild ancestry. He notes that, like many other domesticated breeds, the "turnspit" dog owes its characteristic short legs to a kind of mutation, or monstrosity, which is widespread among domesticated animals and even occurs in man. And he finds much evidence that selective breeding has brought about significant changes. Cats have long existed as domesticated animals, but they tend to breed freely unless kept in strict confinement and there are as one would expect fewer breeds of them locally and they have been less modified. Horses and asses, treated in Chapter II, have also long been domesticated and they have been subjected to intensive artificial selection. They provide excellent examples of breeds having been selected for a variety of purposes. Darwin uses them to illustrate some of his notions about variation including the idea that striped horses are atavisms, or cases of reversion to an ancestral condition.

Chapter III passes on to the Artiodactyla and deals with pigs, cattle, sheep and goats. Darwin concludes that pigs, like dogs, have descended from several non-domesticated forebears. He discusses the remarkable ways in which the skeleton has been modified and relates those changes to embryology via teratology under the rubric of "semi-monstrous breeds." Cattle are highly diverse. In this section Darwin discusses the niata cattle, which he compares to bull dogs and pugs. He had seen these semi-monstrous animals in South America and discussed them in his Journal. The difficulty they have feeding explains what keeps wild animals from having such anatomy. Sheep, he thinks, provide good examples of what he calls the direct influence of the environment, especially in response to hot climates. He argues however that intense selection counteracts such changes. He relates how short-legged breeds had been formed by breeding from mutant individuals. Goats he uses as examples of a group with a remarkable variety of domesticated breeds.

Chapter IV is on rabbits, another group that has long existed in domestication and has produced a large number of breeds. Darwin did much original research on these animals, in addition to gathering material from breeders and other informants. He studied them alive and he also examined specimens and made anatomical preparations of their skeletons. He found that the proportions of the various parts of the body have changed under domestication. He attributes such changes as reduced size of the brain to disuse of the organs. This is one of the "Lamarckian" mechanisms that he believed in, and he invokes it here even though relaxed selection pressure would also have explained the facts.

Darwin devotes two entire chapters—V and VI—to pigeons. These 93 pages provide much more detail than do the eight and one-half in the Origin. In that work he emphasizes the point that although the various breeds are all descended from the rock-pigeon, breeders were convinced that they came from separate species of wild ones. In the Variation he explains that he chose pigeons as study animals partly because the evidence for the monophyletic origin of the group is clear and unequivocal, partly because the literature allows one to trace the history of the various breeds, and finally because the group is highly variable. Darwin begins by describing the various groups, using a diagram that crudely approximates a phylogenetic tree but also attempts to show how much the various races, subraces and breeds have been modified. He repeatedly makes the point that had these birds been taken from the wild, they would be ranked much higher: as distinct species and genera. He then proceeds to discuss variability within the breeds, something that argues for the possibility of continued modification by selection. Supporting that view is that the characters most valued by breeders are highly variable. The extreme variants seem also to be male individuals.

As with rabbits, Darwin devotes considerable attention to the characteristics of the skeleton. Because the differences in the skeletons are of no interest per se to the breeder, who selects only on the basis of external appearances, one should expect little divergence, but it nonetheless occurs. Darwin takes this opportunity to discuss his principle of the correlation of growth, a phenomenon that would be called a kind of pleiotropy by modern geneticists. The point is that variations are causally linked, so that when one

[page] 29

selects for one character others increase in frequency as well. He gives many examples. Then he discusses the effects of disuse, explaining the reduction in size of various parts. Again he might have tried to explain this in terms of natural selection, but fails to do so.

Chapter VI attempts to reconstruct the evolutionary history of domesticated pigeons. Darwin argues that the rock-pigeon is the only known candidate having the properties such as sociability that would make it a plausible ancestor. Then he gives six different arguments against the alternative hypothesis that the different races might each be descended from different stocks. Next he discusses what was known about pigeons from the historical record, going back to the ancient Egyptians. And finally he speculates how the breeds might have evolved through a combination of artificial selection and other mechanisms. His scenario invokes change in the conditions of life inducing greater variability, a mechanism that he discusses later in the book. His main mechanism, however, is artificial selection, and he explains how this would have worked.

Chapter VII is on fowls. Again, Darwin includes a large amount of his own observations, experiments and measurements on the animals in this chapter. He also drew heavily upon the expertise of informants. Fowls were good materials for various topics that interested him. They had been bred as game-cocks and the results were of interest in relation to changes in the time of life at which various characters appear and how they relate to the properties of the two sexes. Darwin's discussion on how the game-cock chicks fight at an early age provides an example of how selection can have deleterious consequences. It is also a very insightful exercise in developmental behavioral genetics. And the various breeds show different patterns in the expression of sexually dimorphic characters. Darwin recounts how he studied the skeletons and skulls of many breeds of fowl, following up his discussion on the birds' external characters. The breeders would have selected for external characters and the internal ones would be modified as a result of correlated effects on development. Chapter VIII completes the survey of the animals: miscellaneous birds, gold-fish, hive-bees and silk-moths.

Chapter IX through XI are on plants, which have a very different anatomy than animals, so different structures have been subjected to selection. Naturally the parts used for food are shown to be the most variable and the most modified. Darwin takes the opportunity to rebut the notion that important organs are not variable. As he says in the Origin, those who make that claim argue in a vicious circle — they decide which organs are important for classification by screening out the ones that vary. In the same vein he notes that some of the flowers characteristic of varieties would have led botanists to rank them as genera or even orders. He notes that flowers have been selected mainly for their beauty, something that has little scientific interest. What is interesting is that monstrous forms of the flowers have been selected, ones in which the stamens are converted into petals and so-forth. Again, modification in structure has resulted from developmental changes. Chapter XI is mainly on bud variation, or changes that appear in the somatic tissues of the plant rather than the germ. Darwin also considers how grafting might produce a kind of hybridization and how the pollen supposedly affects the somatic tissues of female plants. These phenomena were of considerable theoretical interest to him, but they led him astray because they seemed to indicate that external influences produce variation.

Passing now to Volume II, Chapters XII to XIV are about inheritance. The study of domesticated organisms provided Darwin with valuable materials on this topic for many reasons, not the least of which was that breeders often kept extensive pedigrees. Inheritance or heredity posed serious problems for Darwin, and it was not just because so little was known about it. Indeed, many of the challenges he faced resulted from outright misconceptions about heredity rather than just ignorance. Much of what we now know to be error was widely accepted as fact, with a substantial amount of what looked like perfectly good scientific evidence in its favor. The "Lamarckian" notions of use and disuse, the inheritance of acquired characteristics, and the direct action of the environment were generally taken for granted by scientists and lay persons alike, and Darwin was no exception. Darwin was among the skeptics with respect to particular cases, but it was only toward the end of Darwin's lifetime that August Weismann began to challenge such notions. Darwin wrote a preface to an English translation of one of Weismann's early books. Darwin thought of heredity as a conservative influence—something that keeps populations from changing unless something forces them to change. That implied that the breed or species would inevitably tend to return to the ancestral state. We now know that in the absence of selection, mutations will accumulate, making evolution, in this case a kind of degeneration, inevitable.

[page] 30

Another conceptual problem for Darwin was the notion of blending inheritance. If one takes a bucket of white paint and mixes it with a bucket of red paint, one gets two buckets of pink paint. Something similar seems to occur when different organisms are crossed. The result of crossing plants with white flowers with plants with red flowers may be plants with pink flowers. The offspring display a blend of the parents' characteristics. Everybody who knows some elementary genetics can analyze such a cross and suggest that a pair of homozygotic parents produced heterozygotic offspring with less red pigment. But Darwin did not know about such goings on, and that was the problem he had to deal with. What he needed was a particulate theory of inheritance and a clear distinction between genotype and phenotype. Under blending inheritance, any new variant that is selected will get washed out by crosses with the original type. This point was drawn to Darwin's attention by a Scottish engineer, Fleeming Jenkin, and Darwin responded by making important changes in later editions of the Origin. Darwin suggested various ways in which the number of variant individuals might be increased, thereby offsetting the tendency to revert to the original state. But he also realized that not all characters blend. In the early chapters of the Variation he makes this point and tries to come up with a more sophisticated treatment of inheritance. Given the complexity of the subject it is remarkable how well he did.

In Chapter XII Darwin introduces the problems of inheritance, relying heavily upon the experience of breeders and medical men. The evidence consisted largely of pedigree data and efforts to modify domesticated animals and plants. He considers the possibility that amputation of a part in a parent might be passed on to the offspring. Although he notes that such amputations have been done for many generations without clear effect, he gives anecdotal evidence that accidental injury sometimes seems to produce similar changes in the offspring. Darwin believed that changes in the environment have a direct effect on the properties of the organism, changing them in an adaptive direction in some cases and in others causing them to vary. The whole of Chapter XIII is devoted to reversions or atavisms. He had already mentioned that children often resemble their grandparents or even more remote ancestors. Darwin again was in no position to discuss this topic in terms of recessive genes going unexpressed, but he did have some idea of the traits being unexpressed, or as he put it "latent." In the case of sex-limited inheritance, he had a straight forward example of such latency. A son might inherit traits that are only present in males from his grandfather via his mother. He suggests situations in which such atavisms might be produced. In the first situation a character somehow gets effaced through variation and then reappears. He gives examples of domesticated organisms in which the ancestral part reappears, sometimes in vestigial condition, at very low frequencies. In a second, he suggests that crossing two different, modified breeds might lead to the sudden reappearance of the ancestral trait. He backs up his notion of characters remaining latent by experimental evidence showing that secondary sexual characters can appear in the opposite sex. And finally he observes how monstrosities, viewed as developmental abnormalities, can often be treated as atavisms. Chapter XIV deals with prepotency, sex-limited inheritance and developmental timing. Prepotency means a relatively strong tendency to affect the character of later generations. As a property of traits, it might reasonably be compared to dominance. However, Darwin also treated it as a property of entire organisms. He noted that when individuals of two different breeds or species are crossed, the offspring may tend to resemble one parent much more than the other. The notion of prepotency relates to that of sex-linked and sex-limited inheritance. Parents may transmit characters only to offspring of their own sex or only to those of the opposite sex. Enough was known about color blindness and haemophilia at the time to recognize such patterns, but not enough to understand what was going on at a cellular or molecular level. Variation occurs at a particular time in the life cycle of the organism, and is the result of a change in developmental processes. The time at which such a change occurs is generally the same in the offspring as it is in the parent. Referring back to the Origin, Darwin reiterates the point that variation that occurs later in life has no effect on earlier stages of development. Having used that principle to explain why the younger developmental stages of distantly related organisms are more similar to each other than are the adults, he now applies it to various characteristics of domesticated organisms, and to human inherited diseases.

The next five chapters, XV through XIX, deal with crossing. One might conjecture that crossing between two different groups of organisms would tend to produce a kind of mixture. Given what we know about chromosomes the notion of a "mixture" is not very appropriate, for the hereditary material is

[page] 31

highly organized, in a way that limits the kind of crosses that give rise to viable and fertile offspring. Darwin could only study the effects of crossing between more and less closely related animals and plants and speculate as to what goes on physiologically. Nonetheless he realized that if two breeds of domesticated animals or plants are allowed freely to cross, the result will tend to obliterate the differences between them. So breeders had to keep them segregated. Darwin expands somewhat on what he said in the Origin about all organisms, including hermaphrodites, at least occasionally crossing. That implies that whatever its role may be, crossing must be important. He notes that some characters do not blend. In Chapter XVI Darwin considers what tends to prevent free intercrossing among domesticated breeds or "varieties" as he often calls them. They tend, he says, to cross or mate within their own breed. On the other hand domestication tends to reduce the sterility that is characteristic of species, and it may also lead to increased fertility.

Chapter XVII makes the point that outbreeding (crossing) is beneficial, whereas inbreeding has deleterious effects. He provides clear evidence for both of these phenomena. Darwin interpolates a brief discussion on the possible effects of inbreeding in man. He says that he is "unwilling to enter on this subject, as it is surrounded by natural prejudices." He does not mention that he was married to his first cousin and was much concerned about the possible consequences for his own children. But he does consider the literature and discusses the possibility of instinctive avoidance of inbreeding. Chapters XVIII and XIX explain why crossing with unrelated organisms is not necessarily beneficial. Darwin reasoned that organisms would be modified by any change in the conditions of existence. In some cases that produces sterility. On the other hand it causes divergence. The sterility of hybrids results from differences in the reproductive system. Incipient species living under different conditions would tend to diverge in their reproductive systems and gradually become incapable of producing offspring. Darwin reasoned that this divergence was not the result of selection for sterility per se, for sterility would not be advantageous to its possessor. Rather, he thought, the sterility arises as an incidental byproduct of some other change. Such a result of selection for some other trait would be what we now call pleiotropy and Darwin called correlated variability. However, Darwin also included the direct action of the environment, the effects of which, as we now see it, would not be inherited.

Chapters XX and XXI are on selection, the former being on artificial selection, the latter on natural selection among domesticated organisms. Chapter XX, therefore, is concerned with how human beings function as selective agents. Darwin subdivides artificial selection into methodical on the one hand and unconscious on the other. Methodical selection is purposeful: the breeder intends to get a particular result. Unconscious selection has nothing to do with the notion of an unconscious mind, but simply means unintentional. Methodical selection is a specialized technology and is very effective in producing improved breeds of animals or ones that appeal to the tastes of pigeon-fanciers and dog-lovers. Although associated with the industrial revolution, such practice goes back to antiquity. Unconscious selection goes back even earlier and is practiced by primitives. In either case, Darwin argues, the parts that are "most valued by man" are the ones that have changed the most. This is evidence that man has in fact been the selective agent. At the end of this chapter he rebuts a notion that has long been popular with anti-evolutionists — that it is hard to imagine how complex changes involving the body as a coordinated whole could have come about. Darwin responds that change has been slow and gradual. He gives examples from domesticated animals showing how that actually has happened. Chapter XXI then turns to natural selection as it affects domesticated animals and plants. One of the main points is that artificial selection is often opposed by natural selection, sometimes frustrating the efforts of the breeder. Darwin closes with a philosophical discussion on the different roles of variation on the one hand and selection on the other. He compares variation to what happens when pieces of rock break off from a precipice, and selection to a builder choosing among such pieces and creating a building made up of them. As he sees it, variation is strictly a law-like process. But what really counts is selection, the analogue of what the builder does. This analogy is invoked again at the end of the book.

Chapters XXII and XXIII deal with the causes and kinds of variability. Darwin's basic position is that groups of organisms become variable when they are exposed to new conditions of life. The mechanisms of such modification remained a mystery to him. Something was acting upon the organisms, and he thought that it could be on the gametes, the embryos, the young or the adults. We now know this to be true, but given an inability to distinguish effects

[page] 32

upon the germ from effects upon the soma (or genotype from phenotype) crucial pieces of the puzzle were missing and remained so until the rise of modern genetics. Chapter XXIII considers what Darwin calls the "direct and definite" effects of external conditions. He alludes to the notions of Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire and his followers about direct action of the environment producing hereditary changes (Geoffroyism), which are often confused with those of Lamarck. Here the idea is that mere variation, without selection, would suffice to produce a new breed or species. Geoffroyism, like the mutationism that flourished early in the twentieth century, ascribed evolutionary change to what Darwin called the primary causes of structure. Darwin freely admits that changes in a particular direction may be evoked by change in the environment. However, he concludes that for the most part the organisms simply become more variable.

The next three chapters, XXIV through XXVI, are about the laws of variation. Darwin believed that everything that ever happens in the universe occurs in strict conformity with the laws of nature. Therefore it would be grossly misleading to say that he attributed evolution to chance, or that that the variations that are necessary for selection to take place cannot be explained in terms of laws like those of physics and chemistry. Those laws predict which variations will occur, but they do not tell us what the evolutionary outcome will be, for that depends upon historically contingent conditions such as the selection pressures that happen to be active in the environment in which the organisms occur. The process of selection also has its own laws of nature, and these too must be supplied if the history of life is to be properly explained. Many people have maintained that the "real" explanation for evolution is laws of nature and that those laws of nature are laws of embryological development. However, the laws in question do not predict evolution, but only set certain limits to what changes are possible. Such efforts to replace natural selection with embryology have failed. Ironically, Darwin showed remarkably well how such laws and constraints can be accommodated within his theory. Darwin conceived of evolution as a process in which there is a succession of modified ontogenies or "comings-into-being" of organisms.

Chapter XXIV begins with a discussion of the nisus formativus. This was an old-fashioned, vitalistic notion that supposedly explained how regeneration occurs. Darwin restricts it to mean that the developing organism is organized into a coordinated whole. He then considers the evolutionary effects of use and disuse of parts and the acclimatization of domesticated animals and plants to new environments. Developmental abnormalities were often attributed to the arrest of development: a part fails to go beyond the early stages of development. The same kind of change would explain the occurrence of "rudimentary" structures such as the remnant of a tail in human beings. Parts that no longer function would get reduced in size. Darwin does not provide a clear answer to the question of to what extent such reduction is the result of use and disuse on the one hand and natural selection on the other. Chapter XXV continues the search for laws of variation by expanding upon Darwin's ideas about correlated growth and correlated variability. A change in one part of the body is often accompanied by a change in another part. Darwin shows how some of these correlations have a causal basis in the mechanisms of development and in physiological interdependency. His experience with pigeons was a great help here. The increase in number of tail-feathers in one breed led to a tail with larger and more numerous vertebrae. Chapter XXVI adds further patterns of variation that make sense in terms of embryology as then understood. These include what Darwin calls "analogous variation," in which the same kind of variation occurs in separate species or breeds. He thought that some kind of developmental potential gets realized independently in distinct populations.

Chapter XXVII presents Darwin's "provisional hypothesis of pangenesis." The word "provisional" may seem superfluous, for all scientific hypotheses are supposed to be open to future refutation and modification. It serves, however, to underscore its speculative and character, which Darwin freely admitted. The Greek roots of "pangenesis" indicate that the entire organism generates, or gives rise to, the next generation. Although pangenesis had much to do with heredity, Darwin himself considered it a theory of generation. This older term included embryological development and regeneration as well as inheritance. In the second edition Darwin added a long footnote in which he points out that the hypothesis had been widely criticized, though it had found a few supporters. The critics whom he takes seriously are Federico Delpino and G. H. Lewes, both of whose criticisms he considers both fair and useful, and Francis Galton, who had performed some experiments with negative results. Some of the others, such as Mivart, Bastian

[page] 33

and Wigand were quite hostile, but it was not just pangenesis to which they were opposed. Part I of this chapter summarizes the phenomena that the hypothesis was designed to explain. These include: budding, regeneration, metamorphosis, graft hybridization, inherited effects of use and disuse, variability, reversion and latency.

Part II explains the hypothesis. The cells of the body give rise to minute particles, called gemmules, which circulate throughout the body, multiply and ultimately may develop into cells like those from which they derive. They may, however, be transmitted in the latent state and develop into cells in some later generation. They may combine with other gemmules and with partially developed cells. And they have an "affinity" for one another such that they aggregate into buds or into the gonads. In a footnote, Darwin notes some of his predecessors, whose views were, however, not entirely like his own. These include Buffon, Bonnet, and Richard Owen. One other writer, Herbert Spencer, in his Principles of Biology, had suggested something vaguely similar, and Darwin quotes it at length. After it was published Spencer wrote Darwin a letter, explaining that in his own theory the "physiological units" within a single organism are homogeneous (all alike), whereas Darwin's gemmules are heterogeneous. In the second edition Darwin revises the footnote. Owen had claimed that Darwin's hypothesis was no different from his own. In the light of the documents and from the perspective of what we know in the 21st century Owen's reaction can be viewed with much irony. In the first place, his theory was very different from Darwin's, which we now know not to be correct. In the second place, Owen's theory was rather like Weismann's, which ultimately prevailed!

The gemmules, Darwin explains, are diffused throughout the body, and therefore they can come together and produce a whole organism in a bud, replace a limb that has been lost, or regenerate the missing portion of an animal that has been cut in half. The gemmules have an "elective affinity" for certain kinds of cells and that helps to explain how they control development. The term "elective affinity" was an old-fashioned chemical term. Darwin even explains what we now call heterotopic development, such as an arthropod's antenna developing where one would expect to find an eye. To us moderns this looks very much like what is now called evo-devo, but with a different mechanism. The capacity of the gemmules to remain latent explains the reappearance of ancestral traits, and their transmission from a parent to an offspring of the opposite sex. The problem of blending inheritance is eliminated because the gemmules do not blend. Darwin had come up with a particulate theory of inheritance, and one that explained much more than just the inheritance of acquired characters.

Chapter XXVIII provides a general overview of variation as discussed in the earlier parts of the book. It ends with a philosophical discussion aimed at those who would maintain that variation, rather than selection, is the real cause of evolution. Referring back to Chapter XXI, he reiterates his analogy of blocks of stone falling from a precipice. Strictly speaking, he says, the shape of the blocks is not accidental, for everything occurs according to laws of nature. An architect might create a building by selecting stones from the bottom of the precipice and fitting them together. One would not, however, say that the properties of the building are not explained unless one can explain the shape of the stones of which it was built. Having exposed the fallacy of what has been called "structuralism" Darwin discusses Asa Gray's notion of what John Dewey called "design on the installment plan." God, so to speak, has ordained the pattern of variation and thereby affected the overall pattern of evolution. But God would have ordained all sorts of other things, like the variations that have produced grotesque ornamental poultry. Darwin's is a reduction ad absurdum argument.

ON THE DESCENT OF MAN


The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex first appeared in 1871. A second edition, somewhat revised, was published in 1874. It is not easy to decide which edition to recommend to the reader. The first edition is the one that had the greatest impact on contemporary readers, but the second edition includes some replies to critics. Here we follow the first edition. In the Origin Darwin only alluded to human evolution in a single sentence. That sufficed, and human origins were a major consideration in the controversies that immediately followed. By the time that the Descent was published, the scientific community as a whole no longer seriously contested the fact of evolution, though the mechanisms were still controversial and long remained so. In the Descent Darwin treats human evolution from the point of view of both genealogy and mechanisms. He documents the relationships of our species to other animals, emphasizing the transitions, especially in those features that might be considered uniquely human. He also provides an

[page] 34

expanded treatment of his ideas about evolutionary mechanisms, especially sexual selection. Another important theme is the relationship between evolution and ethics.

In the first chapter Darwin briefly reviews the anatomical features that indicate our descent from other primates. The detailed agreement in structure is straight forward comparative anatomy, and Darwin adds some physiological features as well. He also compares the manner of embryological development, showing the sort of common features that indicate common origin. His discussion of rudimentary organs is particularly detailed, showing many features that are evidently useless in human beings but are fully functional in other animals. Evolution provides a straight-forward explanation for these parts.

Darwin then extends the comparison to mental powers. He argues that the mental differences between human beings and other animals are, albeit real, not fundamental ones. Darwin obviously overestimated the differences between primitive and civilized persons. Likewise he tended to overestimate the intellectual prowess of other animals. On the other hand he provides much evidence that they have emotions and feelings, much like our own, and that they possess a capacity for reasoning as well. He discusses the use of tools and the beginnings of communication. The presence of articulate speech in human beings then as now was taken by many persons to indicate some kind of unbridgeable gap between our species and other ones, but Darwin counters that such a transition is not impossible. He turns up the heat, going on to trace the origin of religion to precursors in other species.

Darwin then breaks even more radically with tradition by treating morality from a strictly naturalistic point of view. He was familiar with the ethical writings of philosophers, including the economist Adam Smith, on such topics as the conscience and the moral sense. Darwin treated human morality as a more refined development of phenomena that could be observed in other social animals. But it was a major challenge to his ingenuity to show how such behavior could evolve through natural selection, which, on the face of it at least, seems to depend upon self-interest of the most unenlightened sort. Darwin's solutions to such problems include essentially all of those that have been proposed by subsequent authors. These include reciprocity and concern for the welfare of relatives. He points out that the social virtues originally had only to do with relationships within the group. Their refinement and extension would come later.

In the next two chapters Darwin works out the details of how this might have taken place. In the second edition he changes the order, so that the physical and the moral are treated together. Chapter IV (II in the second edition) applies the theory of natural selection to the human species, beginning with a discussion on how extremely variable it is. He considers the possibility of direct action and then of use and disuse, and provides examples of developmental abnormalities, atavisms and correlated variability. All of these are intended to show that we fit the general pattern of variability seen in other animals. Then to demonstrate that we are liable to natural selection, he discusses our reproductive rates. And then he considers how natural selection could have affected our ancestors. He presents an adaptive scenario involving upright posture, increased brain size, and increased sociality.

Chapter V (III in the second edition) develops his ideas about intellectual and moral evolution. His basic model is the differential survival of family groups and tribes. In the modern literature this form of selection is often called "group selection." He also briefly mentions what is called "kin-selection" analogizing it with breeding from the same stock of domesticated animals and plants. He maintains that ordinary natural selection would tend to eliminate those who sacrifice themselves for the benefit of others. Lastly, he discusses the conditions of progress and the question of whether we should expect our species to advance or to degenerate. The section is long and complicated, and full of unanswered questions.

Chapter VI attempts to locate the human species in the genealogical tree and to give an idea of the series of changes that our ancestors have undergone, working downward to the origin of the vertebrates. He begins by criticizing the habit of treating us as belonging to a distinct order, class, or even phylum on the grounds that we are very different from our relatives. This approach to ranking came under heavy fire late in the twentieth century as genealogical (phylogenetic) classification became more popular. One of Darwin's main antagonists was Richard Owen, who had a famous argument with Thomas Henry Huxley over man's place in nature. Darwin argues that we ought to be placed with our closest relatives, and makes it clear what that means. He tries to determine where our species originated. Then he traces our lineage farther back, ultimately to the tunicates. He suggests that our early ancestors were, like tunicates, hermaphroditic.

[page] 35

Chapter VII deals with human races. Darwin rejects the notion that humanity consists of more than one species in spite of great geographical diversity. He rules out quite a number of causes of their diversification. These even include natural selection, for he could see no obvious advantage to the differences. He then suggests that sexual selection may be the explanation. The second edition has a note by Huxley on the structure of the brain in this chapter.

The second, and much larger, part of the book is on sexual selection. This part is subdivided in the second edition so as to make a third, dealing with sexual selection in man. The topic of sexual selection is difficult enough, and Darwin's writing sufficiently obscure, that we should reiterate what has been said about the three modes of selection: natural, artificial, and sexual. All three depend upon differential reproduction among organisms within the same population. In natural selection reproductive success results from being better able to cope with the conditions of existence. In artificial selection what counts is the choice, whether deliberate or not, by a breeder to have one organism rather than another procreate. Sexual selection is like artificial selection, in that an organism's reproduction is controlled by an organism. It is a matter of pure reproductive competition and does not lead to an increased reproductive potential of the species. In that sense its results are non-adaptive. The mechanism of sexual selection was not invented in order to explain away difficulties in the theory of natural selection, but to provide a compelling argument in favor of selection theory in general.

Darwin devotes a chapter (VIII) to how sexual selection works. He distinguishes between primary and secondary sex characters, the latter of which are not "directly" concerned with reproduction. He points out that this definition leaves it open how direct the connection is. Should they include the organs that subserve copulation and egg-laying? If we exclude these, then only the ovaries and testes remain. So he includes them, and some others, such as mammary glands and brood pouches. By secondary sexual characters he means those that are involved in such activities as attracting mates and defeating rivals. A third class of sex characters, for which he does not provide a name, are those that have no direct connection with reproduction as such, but are the result of males and females living in different places or eating different food. In effect, though he is not particularly clear about it, Darwin means by a secondary sex character one that is produced by sexual selection. All other differences between males and females are the products of natural selection.

Sexual selection, he explains, is a matter of reproductive competition pure and simple, and does not result from being better fitted to survive in the struggle for existence. But he goes on to say that it may be difficult to distinguish between the effects of natural selection and sexual selection. Later he explains how they interact. He says that when gamecocks are selected they become improved and that the same occurs in nature. And he points out that an animal may select a mate that is more healthy or vigorous, suggesting a kind of natural eugenics, though this was not as important a consideration with him as it became a century later. Be this as it may, it would be natural, not sexual selection. A skewed sex ratio or polygamy ought to further sexual selection, but Darwin shows that that is by no means necessary. He then considers the behavioral differences that are responsible, in particular the greater eagerness of males to mate. He notes that the adaptations that are used in sexual combat or in attracting mates may be deleterious to their possessors, but concludes that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. There follows a discussion on what would now be called the developmental genetics of secondary sex characters: such topics as sex-limited inheritance. At the end of this chapter, there is an appendix on the proportion of males to females. Darwin deserves credit for having realized that the sex-ratio is an important problem. Why should the number of males be approximately equal to the number of females, and how could selection account for that? The solution that we now accept was proposed by R. A. Fisher early in the twentieth century. Basically, the answer is that we derive just as much of our ancestry from females as we do from males.

Darwin then develops and tests his theory by going through the animal kingdom, one taxonomic group after another, showing how an enormous mass of factual information can be explained in terms of his hypothesis. If sexual selection is to occur, certain conditions have to be met. For example, if it is the result of females choosing between males with different color patterns, the females must have the ability to see the males. When sexual selection does occur, it is accompanied by anatomical and behavioral features that make it possible. Darwin also had to consider a variety of alternative hypotheses, including Wallace's notion that sexual dimorphism in color results from the female needing more protection than the male

[page] 36

does. In surveying the "lower" animals Darwin argues that brilliant coloration is probably not involved in courtship. When he gets to arthropods, however, he finds copious evidence of sexual competition among male crustaceans. In Chapters X and XI, he discusses the insects, animals in which competition among the males had been well documented. He had good material on their courtship and on the sexual combat of the males. He recognizes causes of brilliant coloration other than sexual selection, and takes these into account. Among these are mimicry and warning coloration, and Darwin discusses both of these phenomena toward the end of Chapter XI.

Chapter XII deals with fishes, amphibians and reptiles, i.e., all vertebrates other than birds and mammals. Combat between the males in some fishes had been studied, and Darwin provides examples of the behavior and the anatomical modifications that go with it. In amphibians and reptiles he finds indications of sexual combat between the males. Darwin devotes four whole chapters to secondary sexual characters of birds. This emphasis on birds can in part be explained by the amount of attention that had been paid to them by naturalists. But the reason Darwin gives is that secondary sexual characters are especially pronounced and diverse among birds. We might add that they provide good examples of both male combat and female choice and that they have both the physical and mental qualities that are conducive to sexual selection. Yet another reason is that Darwin was interested in rebutting Wallace's efforts to explain sexual dimorphism in terms of natural, rather than sexual, selection.

Chapter XIII gives a general picture of sexual selection in birds. Darwin notes that some of the sexual dimorphism is not due to sexual selection but rather to males and females having different ways of life. He then discusses the combativeness of many male birds, and its correlates, such as larger body size. He provides a long discussion on their vocalizations and other sounds as well as miscellaneous behaviors that serve to attract the females, and also their "decoration" as he puts it. Chapter XIV treats such topics as courtship and the psychology of female choice. Sexual selection by female choice will work only if the females are attracted to the males by their ornaments and behavior, and only if the males do have different degrees of reproductive success. Darwin gives evidence that birds have something comparable to our own esthetic tastes, and that the females prefer certain individual males. To reinforce his claim that selection could modify the sexual characters, he shows that they are highly variable. The chapter culminates in a discussion on how the patterns that resemble eyes ("ocelli") on the tails of certain birds have evolved. Something like them occurs in butterflies as well, and Darwin shows how they have been modified from less striking patterns. They are also particularly well developed in peacocks and related birds, and a graded series of intermediate forms can be observed. In the Argus pheasant, they are particularly well elaborated and arranged in a way that precisely maximizes the visual effect when the male displays his plumage to the female.

Chapters XV and XVI deal with sex-limited inheritance in relation to the evolution of sexual dimorphism in color and ornamentation. The reasoning presupposes the ideas about the relationship between embryology and evolution that Darwin developed in The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication. He had only a limited understanding of the relevant physiology and genetics. He did not know that the sex of birds is determined by chromosomes, or how various kinds of genes affect color patterns or other characters, for science had not yet advanced that far. The expression of sexual characteristics is under the control of both male and female sex hormones, but the science of endocrinology as it existed at the time could tell him little more than what happens when the gonads are defective or get removed and whether they are active or not. However, the developmental patterns that interested him had been worked out in some detail. Darwin reasonably assumed that sexual coloration and ornaments had evolved as a consequence of their advantages to the adult birds. Because the juveniles do not mate, having those characters would be of no advantage to them. The variations that provide the basis for selection of those characters could occur in either the juveniles or in the adults and they could be present in just one sex or in both of them. Originally the juveniles and adults would have the same patterns, and selection would then superimpose adult male and female characteristics. Selection could change either sex or both, depending upon whether the variation that is favored by selection occurs in just one sex or in both. If restricted to one sex, the character would evolve in the sex in which it is selected. If not so restricted, selection on either sex would cause it to evolve in both.

Darwin enunciated a series of rules that relate avian color patterns to the sexes and state of maturity

[page] 37

of the animals. The juveniles would not have breeding plumage, because it is not functional, and the adults would have it expressed at the time when it is functional, and in the sex in which it is advantageous. If the variation is sex-limited, then the sexual characters should be present in the sex in which it is advantageous, and individuals of the opposite sex should retain the juvenile pattern. If not so limited, the variation should appear in both sexes, especially when the animals are in breeding condition. In that case the juveniles would most likely retain the primitive pattern. However, a variation that occurs quite early might affect the juveniles as well, and they might evolve a distinct plumage of their own. Darwin related this complex of patterns to the mating habits and other aspects of the reproductive biology of the animals. A good example is those birds in which the usual gender roles have been reversed. Where it is the males instead of the females who care for the young, the males are smaller, less ornamented, and less pugnacious than the females, and it is they whose plumage resembles that of the juveniles.

Chapters XVII and XVIII are on mammals, a group in which sexual selection by male combat is pronounced, and in which female choice is less important than it is in birds. Darwin establishes that males do fight, using their horns and other weapons. Although the horns of males are used in defense against predators, they are sometimes better adapted for combat with other males. The females generally lack such organs, he says, and when they have them they are less developed. Darwin gives evidence for the females preferring particular males. He also reviews the "ornaments" that occur in various male mammals, and occasionally in the females. There follow two chapters, XIX and XX, on the secondary sexual characters of man. Darwin makes it clear that the differences between male and female human beings are much like those that occur in non-human primates. The manner of development of these differences as well as the kinds of them (such as strength and bodily size) indicate that there is nothing extraordinary about us in this respect. Again, the secondary sexual characters, especially those of males, are highly variable. And the various "races" differ greatly in such features as hairiness. Darwin, as was noted earlier, thought that the traits that characterize various groups of human beings are not the sort of adaptive ones that are produced by natural selection. He invoked sexual selection as an alternative.

Darwin maintains that combat among male humans explains their greater bodily strength than that of the females, and their psychological differences as well. Darwin suggests that intellectual qualities selected in the males are also present in the females because they are transmitted to both male and female offspring. It would appear that Darwin underestimated the subtleties of feminine thinking. He suggests that women could be made more nearly the intellectual equals of men by a combination of education and the inheritance of acquired characters. To establish the plausibility of an aesthetic basis for sexual selection, Darwin gives evidence for musical appreciation in other animals as well as in primitive human beings and proceeds to discuss various forms of ornamentation. On the other hand, tastes vary, and different groups of people, both primitive and civilized, have quite diverse preferences. Selection would tend to accentuate those differences. Darwin concludes that sexual selection has been the most important. In the last chapter (XXI) he draws the general conclusion that sexual selection has been responsible for the acquisition of both our bodily and our mental powers, which in turn depend upon the development of the brain. The notion that the brain plays an active role in evolution is likewise fundamental to Darwin's other works on evolutionary psychology.

ON THE EXPRESSIONS OF EMOTIONS IN MAN AND ANIMALS

The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals, first published in 1872, was originally planned as a single chapter in The Descent of Man. Darwin's son Francis edited a posthumous second edition with some new material based upon Charles Darwin's notes. In 1998 Paul Ekman brought out a third, or "definitive" edition with excellent commentary in addition to more material by Darwin himself. Here we will assume that the reader will use the first edition, which is the most widely available, mainly as reprints of the American edition.

Darwin's work on human psychology, like that on other animals and on plants, began very early in his career. Indeed, some of the observations in the Expression evidently go back to the time when he was a student at Cambridge University. (He bet some other young men that they could not sneeze by taking snuff and they all had to pay up!) After he got back from the Beagle voyage he opened a series of notebooks on evolution, but soon split the series into two, one of which dealt with what he called "metaphysi-

[page] 38

cal" (largely psychological) topics. When his first son, William, was born Darwin began to keep detailed notes on the behavior of his children. Some of this material is incorporated in the Expression. In 1877 he published, in the journal Mind, an article entitled "A Biographical Sketch of an Infant" based on his observations of young William. It is one of the classics of developmental psychology.

It is hardly surprising that the greatest biologist who ever lived was also a psychologist of the first rank. The correlation is a causal one, for as Darwin put it in the Origin, "Psychology will be based on a new foundation, that of the necessary acquirement of each mental power and capacity by gradation." The Expression illustrates how this program might be put into effect. In the introduction Darwin discusses the work of his predecessor Charles Bell. His own research was largely motivated by a desire to refute Bell's notion that certain muscles in the human face had been created by God in order to express our emotions. However, Darwin intended to accomplish much more than that. He hoped that facial expression would provide a window through which we could view the mind. Darwin rejected traditional mind-body dualism and in this he may be contrasted with his friend Thomas Henry Huxley, who sided with Descartes. Darwin has been accused of thinking too anthropomorphically, and therefore interpreting the behavior of other animals as too much like our own. These charges are to some degree justified. However, his approach was an objective one, and he backed up his conclusions with comparative and experimental data. The reader should not be misled by Darwin's language. His figure 6 (Fig. 2) is entitled "Cat in an affectionate frame of mind." One behaviorist commentator suggested changing the caption to "Dermal stimulation." That seems silly, though someone who takes a cynical view of cat behavior may suspect that what the creature really had in mind was getting fed.

People who think teleologically are apt to assume that the raison d'être of facial expressions is communication. This mistake continues to be made in spite of Darwin having refuted it along with teleology in general. In Darwin's view, emotional expressions may indeed be used communicatively, but they did not originate as adaptations that further communication, any more than the nose exists because it supports spectacles. As Darwin showed in his other works, structures change their functions. He does seem to have carried this line of reasoning too far, however, for he does not provide any examples of natural selec-

tion causing an expression to convey a different emotion. The smile, we now know, formerly expressed fear; Darwin's figure 17, shows a baboon "pleased by being caressed," but that seems unlikely.

The Expression has been criticized as Darwin's most "Lamarckian" work and it has seemed problematic why he did not more often invoke natural selection. This "Lamarckism" however is a matter of the inheritance of habits, not use and disuse or other evolutionary mechanisms that are ordinarily associated with Lamarckism. Darwin believed that natural selection is the main mechanism of evolution, but he also believed that several minor mechanisms are also effective. In this case he elevated minor ones to a more important role. Since he thought he could explain the facts one way or another, he may not have felt it necessary to decide which mechanism to invoke.

Darwin took great pains to show that facial expressions are inherited and are not mere customs. His views were ignored or rejected by anthropologists and others who tried to attribute every aspect of

[page] 39

behavior to culture. Things did not change until Paul Ekman, beginning with the assumption that Darwin was wrong, found out that his own field data showed that Darwin was right. The result has been a flourishing of experimental and comparative research on facial expression, much of it cross-cultural.

In the introduction Darwin discusses his predecessors and explains evolutionary rationale of his work. He also explains his methodology. One of the strengths of that methodology is that he uses a wide variety of evidence, including a questionnaire that he had printed off and distributed.

Chapters I through III explain the three general principles that Darwin invokes in explaining emotional expression. At the beginning of Chapter I he says that he arrived at these only at the close of his observations. Manuscripts suggest that this claim is not true. It resembles the claim that he makes at the beginning of the Origin about having patiently gathered facts and then finally allowed himself to speculate. The first of these is the principle of serviceable associated habits. When a certain state of the mind is produced there is a tendency to bring a particular group of muscles into play, producing a pattern which, though adaptive (serviceable) when taking action, is otherwise useless. When one thinks about doing something, even if one does not intend to do it, one may go through some of the motions. Such actions have been called "intention movements" but as Darwin notes they occur when nothing is actually intended, as when people are observing an athletic contest. Darwin's theory has been compared to the associationism advocated by earlier psychologists and philosophers. He and Herbert Spencer have been categorized as "evolutionary associationists." Chapter II deals with the principle of antithesis, which is more difficult to understand than that of associated habits. This is shown by two figures, reproduced here, of a dog that is hostile (Fig. 3A) and friendly (Fig. 3B). Darwin thought that emotional states occur as opposites. One pair of these opposites is expressed by the action of a set of muscles that produces a serviceable (again, adaptive) action on the part of the animal. The opposite emotion brings the same set of muscles into play, producing an action having the opposite form, but one which is not serviceable, except perhaps when the expression is used as a signal. Chapter III deals with the principle of the direct action of the nervous system. When we get excited or are afraid, we become aroused, and the nervous system causes our bodies to be made ready

FIGURE 3. (A) "Dog approaching another dog with hosile intentions." (B) "The same in a humble and affectionate frame of mind."

for action. Some of the effects are serviceable, but others, such as trembling, are not.

Chapter IV then discusses the mechanisms by means of which emotions are expressed, such as by producing sound or erecting the hairs or the feathers on the surface of the body. Chapter V treats a variety of "special expressions" such as those associated with anger and affection in domesticated animals and also in primates in captivity. His observations include some experiments made at the London zoo. There follow a series of chapters (VI through XIII) in which the "special expressions" found in human beings are treated systematically according to the emotions that these are thought to express. The term "emotion" is not quite appropriate for some of these. Shyness is generally considered a personality trait, but then again a shy person has characteristic emotions that do get expressed under certain circumstances. The various expressions are analyzed according to how the muscles, glands and other bodily parts are brought into play when a particular emotion is being expressed. A considerable amount of anatomical detail is presented along with both physiological and behavioral experiments. As may be seen especially in Chapter VI, Darwin studied children extensively. One reason for doing so was that they would be less apt to

[page] 40

have the spontaneous form modified by learning or the effects of observation. There are also observations made upon the insane, as in Chapter X and XII, part of the rationale being that such persons may become highly aroused and therefore show the expression to an extreme degree. He made cross-cultural comparisons, especially to be seen in Chapter XI, designed to separate the effects of custom and thereby establish that the expressions are inherited. These were partly based upon a questionnaire that he had printed up and sent to informants. Because the congenitally blind are at first unaware of being observed, Darwin utilized observations on them, many of which are discussed in Chapter XIII. Especially useful were observations made by his informants on Laura Bridgeman, who was both blind and deaf from a very early age. Chapter XIV provides a summary and some general conclusions about the derivation of emotional expressions from those of our remote ancestors.

ON PLANT PSYCHOLOGY

Insectivorous Plants was first published on July 2, 1875. It was the first of Darwin's three books on plant psychology, the other two being Climbing Plants and The Power of Movement in Plants. Classifying these publications as psychology may offend some persons. After all, plants don't have souls or minds, and that is what psychology is supposed to be about. But many years have passed since most psychologists defined their field that way. It is the science of behavior. Darwin's work on plant behavior might also be viewed as ethology, and one might even say that he invented that field many years before its supposed founders, von Fritsch, Tinbergen and Lorenz. One objection to calling it ethology has been that plants do not behave, on the grounds that behavior is muscular movements. But this definition of ‘behavior' seems a bit arbitrary, and not just because many animal movements are produced by cilia rather than muscles. Plant movements are based upon the action of a hydraulic system combined with differential growth. Plants do react to stimuli, and this fact created serious difficulties for the philosophers who wanted to deny a "sensitive soul" to them. Such semantic quibbles do not affect Darwin's claims that plants share quite a number of faculties that seem characteristic of animals and, more importantly, that these faculties have gradually evolved by natural selection.

The book itself is rather long and tedious and few readers will want to read it from cover to cover. However, it does provide some fine examples of Darwin's experimental work. Darwin tells us that his work on insectivorous plants began in July of 1860. That would have been during a vacation in Hartfield. He was surprised to observe the capture of large numbers of insects by the leaves of the common sun-dew, Drosera rotundiflora. That led him to investigate the physiology and adaptive significance of the phenomenon. Most of his experimental results are on that species, and about 60% of the book (Chapters I through XI) is devoted to it. The first chapter describes the structure of the plants and explains how they capture insects with their tentacles, which are very sensitive and secrete a sticky material. The second chapter shows that the plants respond much more readily to materials of animal origin than to mere mechanical stimulus. In the third chapter the results of observations of what goes on at a cellular level are described. A wide range of stimuli were tried and the plants were found to be very sensitive indeed. The fourth chapter is devoted to the effects of temperature on the reactions of the plants. In the fifth chapter the results of screening a wide range of substances are presented; it seems that the plants are responding preferentially to materials that contain nitrogen. This finding suggested that the plants might actually be able to digest their prey, something that had not been discovered in plants before. This hypothesis is supported by the experimental results presented in the sixth chapter. The plants digest their prey using an enzyme that functions only under acidic conditions, much like the gastric secretion of many animals. The seventh chapter documents the remarkable sensitivity of the plants to various salts of nitrogen. The results of screening a wide variety of compounds that might provide a clue to the mechanisms are presented in the eighth chapter. As in animals, the effect is not strictly correlated with the chemistry of the materials that were tested. The ninth chapter goes on to explore the effects of various other chemicals, especially those that affect animal nervous systems. These include various alkaloids, cobra venom, cyanide, alcohol and anaesthetics. In the tenth chapter the manner in which stimuli, which originate in the tentacles, are transmitted to the rest of the plant is explored. Darwin was looking for something like nerves, and for a while he thought he had found them in the vascular bundles in the leaves. But his experiments ruled that out.

The eleventh chapter provides a summary of the material on Drosera latifolia. It is followed by a brief

[page] 41

one on other species of the same genus. They all catch insects in much the same way. They live in habitats such as bogs where there is plenty of water but other nutrients are in short supply. And they all are adapted to obtaining nutrients not through their roots, but from the insects that they capture. Then Darwin expands the discussion to the rest of the family Droseraceae, which provide a broader range of variations on the same basic theme (in chapters XIII through XV). The thirteenth chapter is devoted to just one of these, the Venus' fly-trap, Dionaea muscipula. It differs in having a much different, and more spectacular, way of capturing insects and in the details of how these are digested. But the trap is, like that of Drosera, a modified leaf. Aldrovanda vesiculosa, treated in the fourteenth chapter, is treated as a miniature, rootless, Dionaea, which lives submerged under water and captures crustaceans and insect larvae. In the fifteenth chapter three more genera are briefly discussed, together with some supplemental materials on the physiology of related, but non-insectivorous plants. One important point is that plants in general are able to take up nutrients through their leaves. The chapter ends with an effort to reconstruct the evolutionary history of the group, in which the origin of the ability to react to stimulus, to digest animal matter, and to absorb the material that has been digested are explained. The scenario, which traces the novel features to plausible predecessors, is much like those that Darwin presents in other works.

The rest of the book (chapters XVI through XVIII) deals with insectivorous plants from another family (Lentibulariaceae), implying that the habit has evolved separately. Pinguicula, discussed in the sixteenth chapter, captures insects with its leaves. Experiments give results much like those on Drosera and its allies. The plants secrete a sticky fluid and digest and absorb the animal remains. The other genus, Utricularia, discussed in the last two chapters, has a somewhat different manner of capturing prey, as do some of its relatives. Utricularia is aquatic, and has bladders equipped with valves that allow crustaceans and other small animals to get in but not to get out. But these plants do not digest the animals that they capture. Rather they die and rot and the plants absorb the nutrients that are formed as breakdown products.

The Movements and Habits of Climbing Plants was first published as a journal article in 1865. It appeared as a book in 1875, shortly after Insectivorous Plants, as a "second edition" with a new preface and somewhat revised. Discussing it after Insectivorous Plants and before The Power of Movement in Plants makes it easier to understand the conceptual relationships between the latter two works. The former is a comparative study of the ability of plants to respond in an adaptive manner to stimuli, the latter an experimental analysis of the mechanisms by which they do so. In the first chapter of Climbing Plants Darwin divides almost all of these organisms into two major groups. The first is twining plants, which simply wind around a support; these he considers the simpler and more primitive. The second are those that grasp their support with various organs, which are modified leaves and other plant parts. The twining plants are shown to execute circling movements as they grow. As a result the plants are brought into contact with sticks or other objects and then wind around them, obtaining support. The circling movements, or nutations, result from differential growth and are easily produced. Sweeping a larger area makes it more likely that the plant will find a support. It is a random, or better undirected, search process. Later evolutionary stages elaborate upon this basic mechanism by adding the ability to respond to stimuli followed by further adaptations. The second chapter deals with leaf-climbers. The leaves revolve and are sensitive to stimuli. When they encounter a support the petioles may wind around it and grasp it. Or attachment may be provided by means of modified ribs. The third and fourth chapters are on tendril-bearers. Tendrils are modified leaves together with their petioles, the peduncles of flowers and other structures. They too revolve spontaneously, and they respond to touch. Some plants are transitional between leaf-climbers and tendril-bearers. The tendrils may simply twine around their support, but often there are adhesive organs that allow the plant to hang on. After attachment the tendrils may then contract into a pair of spirals thereby shortening the tendril and pulling up the stem of the plant. The spirals have the additional effect of making the tendril into a kind of spring with considerable elasticity, making it difficult to dislodge the plant from its support. The fifth chapter discusses a few other mechanisms of climbing. Root-climbers attach themselves to trees by putting forth roots and secreting an adhesive. In his concluding remarks Darwin explains what he thinks is the adaptive significance of climbing and the more advanced mechanisms of doing so. The climbing plants do not have to support themselves by heavy branches and that saves valuable resources. Twining

[page] 42

would have been the original mechanism, and leaf-climbers and tendril-bearers would be the modified descendants of twiners. These plants could climb directly upward, economizing on resources by virtue of the much shorter stems. By reference to the classification of the group Darwin shows that the ability to climb has evolved independently in unrelated forms. The power of movement occurs in a wide diversity of plant organs, and it is coupled with the ability to respond to stimuli including light, gravity and touch. In conclusion Darwin remarks that plants do not differ from animals in lacking the power of movement, but only manifest it when it is advantageous for them to do so.

The Power of Movement in Plants, published on November 22, 1880, justifies Darwin's reputation as a plant physiologist of the first rank. It inspired a vast literature on plant growth hormones and related topics. It is a logical development of the book on climbing plants in which Darwin questioned some of the interpretations of Julius Sachs. When this book was published Sachs was much annoyed. The result was extended controversy. Darwin enlisted the assistance of his son Francis in this research and the fact that the younger Darwin was really a co-author is underscored by the use of the first person plural in the introduction. The book is long, technical, and full of experimental detail. In fact, this one is the least readable of Darwin's books. For most readers, it would seem reasonable, following its authors' advice, to read the introduction first, then go to the back of the book and read the last chapter. Then one might want to read at least some of the parts that are set in larger type.

The book is about the evolution of behavior. Plants grow by the expansion of their cells. The growing parts undergo spontaneous circling movements called "circumnutation" due to uneven expansion of the cells. By evolving an ability to respond to stimuli, plants have become able to grow in a particular direction, either toward or away from a given stimulus. These directed movements are called "tropisms" and have parallels in the "taxes" of animals. The movements are classified according to the type of stimulus and whether it is away from, or toward the stimulus. Thus the leaf of a plant might grow toward the light, and that would be a case of positive heliotropism. If it grew away from the force of gravity that would be negative geotropism, or, as Darwin put it, apogeotropism. Plants could also react to touch and humidity. The different parts of the plant, such as leaves and roots, would react in different ways, producing adaptive movements that lead them toward the light or water and nutrients. All this fitted in quite well with Darwin's theory of natural selection, for the movements would vary in amplitude and direction and selection would favor having the plants move in the appropriate direction. Because circumnutation occurs spontaneously in all growing parts of the plant, the problem of where the movements came from in the first place was solved.

Darwin's experiments show that the stimulus is received at the tip of the root or the shoot and then somehow transmitted to a point somewhat distant from it where the bending takes place. He draws an analogy with "lower" animals, which of course have nervous systems though plants do not. He ends the book as follows: "The course pursued by the radicle in penetrating the ground must be determined by the tip; hence it has acquired such diverse kinds of sensitiveness. It is hardly an exaggeration to say that the tip of the radicle thus endowed, and having the power of directing the movements of the adjoining parts, acts like the brain of one of the lower animals; the brain being seated within the anterior end of the body, receiving impressions from the sense-organs, and directing the several movements."

WORMS

The Formation of Vegetable Mould, through the Action of Worms, with Observations on their Habits was published on October 10, 1881. It was the last of Darwin's books to be published. It appealed to a broad audience and sold very well. Worms are familiar objects, but most people haven't given them much thought. The reader is fascinated by obscure details and curious facts. The book is replete with outstanding experimental work that doesn't require much background to understand. It even has a philosophical message: the humble and industrious worm turns out to be a major shaper of the landscape.

Darwin got interested in earthworms soon after his return from the voyage of the Beagle. The topic evidently attracted his attention when he was visiting the home of his uncle Josiah Wedgwood II at Maer in Staffordshire. Darwin's initial interest in them was mainly geological, and his thinking about such matters must have been affected by his work on coral reefs. He read a paper on that topic to the Geological Society of London on November 1, 1837 and it was published in their Transactions in 1840. He published

[page] 43

a note on vegetable mould in 1844, and seems to have taken up the study of worms again around 1869, when he published another short paper. During the 1870s he made observations on their biology and their geological significance. When he took up the study of their behavior and habits Darwin had already achieved greatness as an evolutionary physiologist and psychologist through his research on the behavior of plants and "higher" animals such as bees and vertebrates. From a neurophysiological point of view at least, earthworms are quite simple animals. Worms helps to fulfill the prediction that Darwin made in the Origin: "Psychology will be based on a new foundation, that of the necessary acquirement of each mental power and capacity by gradation."

The book, however, is structured so as to put most of the geology last, because it is easier to understand the geology if one already knows about the biology of the worms. So Darwin begins, in Chapter I, with a discussion of their sensory capacities and feeding, based largely on his own experiments. In Chapter II he describes some surprising results. Worms seem able to exercise a kind of intelligence when they draw leaves into their burrows. ‘Intelligence' has often been defined as the ability to benefit from experience and this was the concept that Darwin applied. Darwin backs up this view with many experiments. The leaves are drawn in partly as a means of plugging up the burrows, and partly as food. That topic leads naturally to considerations of how the worms burrow and how they ingest soil and extract food from it and deposit castings at the surface. They bring up a lot of material, some of it from considerable depth. Chapter III addresses the question of how much is brought up, and the quantity is most impressive. So too are the effects, for objects on the surface are buried, including large stones, which are undermined. Among the most impressive effects is the burial of ancient buildings, which is the subject of Chapter IV. Darwin studied several ancient ruins from this point of view. The first of these that he considers was a Roman villa at Abinger Hall, in Surrey. It was on the property of Thomas Henry Farrer, the husband of one of Darwin's Wedgwood cousins. Farrer undertook a methodical excavation of the site. Darwin was present when the excavation began, and made use of Farrer's notes. Darwin's sons William, Francis and Horace visited other sites and made observations for him. Worms are also important agents of erosion, or, as Darwin puts it, the "denudation of the land," and he devotes two chapters (V and VI) to that topic. With numerous observations and much quantitative data, Darwin establishes the fact that earthworms are responsible for the removal of an enormous amount of material from the soil, most of which ultimately makes its way to the sea and forms sedimentary rock. In the final chapter Darwin compares the effects of worms to those of corals. The corals are noteworthy for building things up, the worms for tearing them down. In either case we have a theme that often recurs in Darwin's work. Major changes in the earth and its inhabitants take place gradually, by small steps, and over vast periods of time.

SECONDARY LITERATURE AND OTHER SOURCES

The major purpose of this Guide is to enable the reader to understand and appreciate Darwin by reading his works. Those publications and his other writings such as his notebooks, unpublished manuscripts, and correspondence are what historians call "primary sources." Commentary written about him by historians and others is considered "secondary" source material. Often the distinction breaks down, as when a letter by Darwin is published together with scholarly notes and commentary. The additional sources both primary and secondary can be of considerable use to anyone interested in Darwin and his accomplishments. This Guide would not have been written had it not been felt that the reader might benefit from a certain amount of exegesis. However, the secondary literature is as variable in quality as it is vast in quantity. My first book on Darwin, written when I was a very young scientist, was evoked as a reaction to the secondary literature that fell into my hands. I asked myself why somebody who understands evolution hadn't read all of Darwin and explained what he was up to. This I did, and, although the work has become somewhat dated, the basic point that Darwin was a very philosophical scientist with a unitary way of thinking became at least an implicit premise in Darwin studies ever since.

The authors of secondary sources have their own agendas. There is nothing wrong with that, especially if an author's agenda is to set the record straight. Yet even with the best of intentions a certain amount of distortion is inevitable. The problem may or may not be obvious when somebody produces an abridged edition of a book, or assembles an anthology. On the other hand, Darwin has been the subject of a vast literature written from a hostile point of view and often

[page] 44

intended to discredit him, his science, and even science in general. Such hostility often has religious motives. But much of it is generated by political sentiment. The competitive world that Darwin revealed may seem repugnant, and some persons feel that by denying such aspects of the natural world they will go away. Others, mixing up religion with politics, maintain that the struggle for existence is the will of God, and use that as an argument for laissez-faire economic ideology and the kind of reactionary politics that so often goes with it. So we have advocates of various kinds of political ideology, left, right and center, battling with one another about what has often been called Social Darwinism, with science caught in the cross-fire. And there is a long tradition of trying to make evolutionary biology into a kind of secular religion.

The historiography of Darwinism and Darwinism itself have been the products of the times that have given rise to them. To understand that literature we need to place it in its historical context. By the time of his death Darwin and his followers had convinced the scientific community that evolution has indeed occurred. But his thesis that natural selection has been the main, albeit not exclusive, mechanism that has caused it, although respectable, was only held by a minority of biologists, such as Henry Walter Bates, Fritz Müller and August Weismann. The historian Peter Bowler has written of a "non-Darwinian revolution." Soon after Darwin's death there was a worldwide reaction against Darwinism and against the rationalism that had given rise to it. For that reason idealistic philosophy became popular. Among scientists alternatives to natural selection flourished, including various notions often called Lamarckian. Some of these were vague claims that ultimately evolution would be explained as a result of as yet unspecified laws of nature. The notion that evolution is like the development of an embryo, headed toward a definite ultimate condition, was also very popular, especially among those who wanted to believe that evolution is necessarily progressive and that progress is always a good thing. There were, indeed, some serious problems with Darwin's theory. For one thing he had not ruled out "Lamarckian" mechanisms. For another, he did not have a good theory of heredity. The theory that had been published during Darwin's lifetime by Gregor Mendel was ignored until 1901.

One might think that the discovery of Mendel's laws would have immediately vindicated natural selection. Nothing of the sort happened however. The early Mendelians such as Thomas Hunt Morgan were vehemently opposed to natural selection. It took decades before genetics was fully assimilated into evolutionary theory. During that period, Darwin's followers remained a minority. They became a majority among scientists only as the alternatives gradually became untenable. Naturally, the historical accounts that were written at the time reflected that very situation. The genetical objections to natural selection were disposed of in the 1920s. During the late 1930s and up to around 1950 a "synthetic theory" of evolution emerged. It put together the results of genetics, systematics, paleontology and other disciplines into a modernized version of Darwin's theory. Important books accomplishing that were written by the Russian-American Theodosius Dobzhansky, the German-American Ernst Mayr, the Englishman Julian Huxley, the German Bernhard Rensch, the Russian Ivan Ivanovich Schmalhausen, and the Americans George Gaylord Simpson and G. Ledyard Stebbins.

When the centennial of the publication of The Origin of Species was celebrated in 1959, a large number of scientists as well as others had occasion to reconsider what Darwin had accomplished. The shortcomings of much of the old historiography were painfully apparent. One consequence was a new historiography. The impetus was provided by four zoologists: Gavin De Beer, Sydney Smith, Ernst Mayr, and Michael Ghiselin. De Beer looked at Darwin's early notebooks and published them with commentary. Smith studied and organized the materials that were preserved at the Cambridge University Library and showed how to use them. Mayr wrote several influential papers and an introduction to a re-issue of The Origin of Species. He was also a post-doctoral sponsor of Ghiselin, whose book, The Triumph of the Darwinian Method, put Darwin's accomplishment into a modern philosophical perspective. Mayr encouraged the work of other young Harvard Darwin scholars, such as Mary P. Winsor, Jonathan Hodge and Frank Sulloway. A new generation of historians got interested in Darwin and the history of evolutionary biology and the Cambridge archives increasingly gave important results. The science of evolutionary biology continued to advance, and Darwin's ideas about sexual selection and related topics were rediscovered. One consequence was the debate about "sociobiology" that arose in the 1970s and created much commentary, some of it well informed.

To write intelligent commentary about science,

[page] 45

one needs to understand the science itself. This helps to explain why a movement called "externalism" arose as an alternative to the history of ideas. At its worst it was an effort to show that evolutionary biology is a capitalist plot. When one starts looking at science from the point of view of the religious and political climate of the times, one may come up with valuable results. On the other hand, there has been an unfortunate failure among some historians to appreciate the originality of Darwin and other scientists. Professional historians have made a magnificent contribution to Darwin studies by the editing and publishing of texts. The complete correspondence of Darwin is being published with excellent commentary. Philosophers have also contributed a great deal to the Darwin literature. Regrettably, the tradition in that discipline has been to consider ones self an expert on things in general, and to write about the philosophy of a subject without knowing much about it and therefore get the fundamental premises wrong. Things began to change when the philosophy of biology became a distinct specialty thanks largely to the efforts of David L. Hull. There has also been a lot of input from the practitioners of other disciplines, such as anthropology, psychology, and geology, to which Darwin made important contributions, and from historians of those subjects. Such commentary can be valuable, especially when an author puts specialist expertise to good use. But such authors are not always aware of their own limitations. Perhaps the best advice that can be offered to the users of this guide and its bibliography is caveat emptor.

Having said that does not relieve me of the responsibility of giving the reader some pointers about what items listed in the bibliography might be worth reading. The standard work on Darwin's life remains the Life and Letters written by his son Francis (1887) and supplemented by a work called More Letters of Charles Darwin by him and A. C. Steward (1903). Any such work has the drawback of the editor having to select one item in favor of another; this one suffers from certain sensitive materials having been suppressed. The Correspondence of Charles Darwin published by Cambridge University Press beginning in 1985 with Frederick Burkhardt and Sydney Smith as founding editors gives unabridged versions of both sides of the correspondence and an enormous amount of supplementary material as well. Volume 16 (2008) covers 1868 and it will be years before the work is completed. One of Darwin's daughters, Henrietta Litchfield, edited a fine contribution to the "life and letters" genre entitled Emma Darwin: a Century of Family Letters (1915). One of his grand-daughters, Gwen Raverat, wrote a charming family memoir entitled Period Piece: A Cambridge Childhood (1952). Also providing the same kind of materials are the lives and letters of Darwin's friends and supporters. Thomas Henry Huxley's son Leonard produced the Life and Letters of Thomas Henry Huxley (1900) and The Life and Letters of Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker (1918).

Many biographies of Darwin have been published, including a few good ones. Among the more recent biographies, Janet Browne's 2-volume work (1995 2002) is particularly good, but many readers will prefer something shorter like Ernst Mayr's One Long Argument (1991) which reflects the views of one of the architects of modern evolutionary theory. Someone looking for a good introductory overview might well read Peter Bowler's Charles Darwin, the Man and His Influence (1990).

Quite a number of biographical works focus upon just a part of Darwin's life and work. We give a few good examples. Ralph Colp, Jr., M.D. went into Darwin's mysterious ailment in great depth in his To Be an Invalid (1977) and concluded that it was largely of psychosomatic origin. We may note that other possibilities have been entertained, most recently that he had an allergy to wheat. John Bowlby goes over the same problem from somewhat different psychological point of view in his Charles Darwin, a New Life (1990). Frank Sulloway considers the effect of birth order on the mentalities of Darwin and other scientists in his Born to Rebel (1996). Gruber and Barrett present some ruminations on the fascinating topic of Darwin's creativity in their Darwin on Man (1974). Sandra Herbert's Charles Darwin, Geologist (2005) is a fine piece of scholarly writing that goes well beyond geology in its scope. For coral reefs the classic study by Davis entitled The Coral Reef Problem (1928) is a bit technical for most readers and largely outdated, but still invaluable. Mea Allen's Darwin and his Flowers: the Key to Natural Selection (1977) is good for a general audience.

A number of books, many of them multi-authored, that relate Darwin to various larger themes. We here give a few interesting examples. Thomas Glick has edited a volume that considers the impact of Darwinism on various groups of people including national cultures entitled The Comparative Reception of Darwinism (1972). Also along the same lines is Disseminating Darwinism: the Role of Place, Race,

[page] 46

Religion and Gender, edited by Ronald L. Numbers and John Stenhouse (1999). Giuliano Pancaldi's Darwin in Italia (1983) has appeared in English translation (1991). The Russians have been considered by Alexander Vucinich in his Darwin in Russian Thought (1988) and by Daniel Todes in his Darwin without Malthus (1989). The Russians found Darwinism attractive from the outset and remained enthusiastic about it. It had some important followers in the nineteenth century but interest lapsed until the 1950s. Why Darwinism has fared so badly in France has been considered extensively, for example by Yvette Conry in her L'Introduction du Darwinisme en France au XIXe Siècle (1974). We should also mention Cynthia Russett's Darwin in America: the Intellectual Response 1865–1912 (1976). The Descent of Love by Bert Bender (1996) is about the impact of Darwin's theory of sexual selection in American fiction, providing a good example of Darwin's wider impact on literary culture in his own time. Another interesting study along such lines is Darwin and the General Reader: the Reception of Darwin's Theory of Evolution in the British Periodical Press, 1859–1872 by Alvar Ellegård (reprinted 1990).

Multi-authored books that consider Darwin's accomplishments in general or a particular one of them might be viewed as a separate genre. They have often been assembled for the purpose of commemorating events such as Darwin's birth or death or celebrating the publication of one of his works. A classic example is Darwin and Modern Science: Essays in commemoration of the Centenary of the Birth of Charles Darwin and of the Fiftieth Anniversary of The Origin of Species, edited by A.C. Seward (1909). More useful as a survey of recent opinion about Darwin than for understanding Darwin himself is the ponderous The Darwin Heritage edited by David Kohn (1985). Paul Ekman has edited a fine volume on Darwin and Facial Expression: a Century of Research in Review (1973). A similar effort that is not quite so accessible is Bernard Campbell's Sexual Selection and the Descent of Man 1871–1971 (1972).

There are several reference works and guides that readers of Darwin should know about. Particularly valuable is the three-volume Dictionnaire du Darwinisme et de L'Évolution edited by Patrick Tort (1996). It deals with a vast range of topics and there is nothing like it in English. The Cambridge Companion to Darwin, edited by Jonathan Hodge and Gregory Radick (2003), is less what its title indicates than a series of essays that provide a sample of contemporary philosophical commentary on him. For a good introduction to Darwin as a philosopher see Darwin by Tim Lewens in the Routledge Philosophers series (2007). R.B. Freeman has published two very useful little manuals: The Works of Charles Darwin: an Annotated Bibliographical Handlist (1965) and Charles Darwin: a Companion (1978). The latter contains all sorts of fascinating trivia. Although not exactly a reference work, The Collected Papers of Charles Darwin, edited by Paul H. Barrett (1977), contains just about all of Darwin's journal articles and other minor publications.

A great deal of material is being made available online. Although this move increases the availibility of both manuscripts and published sources, interpreting them remains as formidable a task as ever. To cope with that plethora of resources, it is all the more important to read Darwin's works, and read them with understanding.

Charles Darwin Chronology



This chronology has been assembled from miscellaneous sources, most of which are cited in the bibliographies. Among these, Darwin's own publications and the many volumes of correspondence that have been published are critical. Other sources include Darwin's personal diaries and those kept by his wife. The various sources sometimes give different dates for the same event. CD is an abbreviation for Charles Darwin.

Note: CD → J.D. Hooker (or others) indicates a letter from Darwin to the recepient.

Biographical Dictionary

This biographical dictionary was designed to provide information relevant to the study of Darwin's life and works. Many of the data have been taken from biographies, autobiographies and standard reference works. The commentary, however, is not all derivitave of such secondary sources, but reflects many years of study of such primary sources as the writings of Darwin, Wallace, Owen, Haeckel, Spencer and Dohrn. We should mention that some of the references give conflicting information and that some dates are uncertain.

Abercrombie, John
October 10, 1780—November 14, 1844
Aberdeen, Scotland—Edinburgh, Scotland
Scottish physician and philosopher. Darwin read his Inquiries Concerning the Intellectual Powers and the Investigation of Truth (1830) after the Beagle voyage. He was also author of The Philosophy of Moral Feelings (1832).
References: EB 13.

Agassiz, Alexander
December 17, 1835 — March 27, 1910
Neuchâtel, Switzerland — at sea
Swiss-American zoologist and mining engineer. The son of Louis Agassiz, he ultimately succeeded his father as Director of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard University. A shrewd businessman whose wife was from a wealthy family, he used his substantial personal fortune to advance his scientific career and enjoyed great influence on governmental and academic policy. Unlike his father, he did not oppose evolution. However, he did not support natural selection and was one of the major opponents of Darwin's coral reef theory.

Agassiz, [Jean] Louis [Rudolphe]
May 20, 1807 — December 14, 1873
Motier-en-Vuly, Switzerland — Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
Swiss naturalist. He immigrated to the United States in 1846 and became a professor at Harvard University in 1847. Early in his career he was strongly influenced by German idealism, and later advocated successive special creation. A popular lecturer and teacher, he had many influential students. He opposed Darwin's evolutionary theories. As a geologist he was successful in establishing the notion of an ice age with extensive glaciation. However, his attempt to refute evolution by claiming that Brazil had been covered by glaciers was not successful.
References: Lurie in DSB, Lurie 1913.

Alder, Joshua
April 7, 1792 — January 21, 1867
English businessman, marine zoologist and malacologist. He collaborated with Albany Hancock on systematics of Nudibranchia, a group of some interest to Darwin.

Archiac, Étienne Jules Adolphe Desmier de Sant Simon, Vicomte D'
September 24, 1802 — December 24, 1868
Rheims, France — Paris, France
French cavalry officer who turned to geology after retirement and became quite eminent. His greatest work was a Histore des Progrès de la Géologie (1847-1860). In the first volume he criticized Darwin's views on the formation of mould by earthworms. Darwin, in Worms, responded that D'Archiac was arguing from "inner consciousness" rather than observation.
References: EB13, GHG.

Argyll, George John Douglas Campbell, 8th Duke of
April 30, 1823 — April 24,1900
Scottish geologist and politician who tried to reconcile science with religion. Author of The Reign of Law (1866), he opposed Darwin's views on coral reefs and natural selection.

Baer, Karl Ernst von
February 28, 1792 — November 28, 1876
Piep, Estonia — Dorpat, Estonia
Embryologist, professor at Königsberg, later worked at the Academy of Sciences of Saint Petersberg. He was one of the most influential scientists of his day, his reputation resting upon his discovery of the mammalian egg and his comparative embryological work, which gave four basic types of animals much like those of Cuvier. The law that he enunciated has been treated as an alternative to embryological recapitulation, but it was strictly formal and not historical. Although he was favorably impressed by Darwin's accomplishment, he remained an idealist and insisted that evolution must have a teleological basis.
References: Di Gregorio in DSB.

Bain, Alexander
June 11, 1818 — September 18, 1903
Aberdeen, Scotland — Aberdeen, Scotland
Scottish philosopher and psychologist, author of The Senses and the Intellect (1855) and The Emotions and the Will (1859), abridged as Mental and Moral Science (1868), all very influential works. Bain's psychology was in the associationist tradition and tended to emphasize experience and de-emphasize instinct, especially in morals. Darwin was more of

[page] 71

a "nativist" in keeping with his view that the mind is a product of evolution. Both he and Darwin had a strongly physiological approach to psychology. Darwin frequently cites Bain in The Descent of Man and The Expression of the Emotions.

Darwin, Erasmus (Dr.)
December 12, 1731 — April 18, 1802
Elston, near Newark, England — the Priory, near Derby, England
Paternal grandfather of Charles Darwin. A sort of polymath, he was a physician, philosophical poet, popular writer, and natural scientist. He is well known for having invented a quasi-evolutionary theory quite similar to that of Lamarck. For that reason he is mentioned in the Historical Sketch in later editions of the Origin. His writings may have influenced Charles Darwin's thinking on a variety of subjects, including psychology and developmental genetics. Charles Darwin's biography of Erasmus Darwin was published after having been censored by Henrietta Darwin.

Darwin, Erasmus Alvey
December 29, 1804 — August 26, 1881
Shrewsbury, England — London, England
Older brother of Charles Darwin. He took a medical degree but never practiced. Instead he chose to live most of his life in London, where he had a rich social and intellectual life. Erasmus and Charles shared quarters in Edinburgh while both of them were in medical school there. Charles often visited Erasmus in London and seems to have derived a great deal of valable information about a wide range of topics, including philosophy and economics, from him and his friends.

British zoologist, M.D. Edinburgh 1814. Grant was an important influence on Darwin during his Edinburgh period. Later he became a professor of zoology and comparative anatomy in London. A major Lamarckian, he published important works on sponges and other marine invertebrates. Evidently he published some of Darwin's earliest work without due acknowledgment. Darwin had little if anything to do with him later in life, though Grant did dedicate a book to him. Darwin mentions him in the Historical Sketch in later editions of the Origin.

Gray, Asa (Professor)
November 18, 1810 — January 30, 1888
Sauquoit, New York, USA — Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
American botanist, professor at Harvard. After they had met in England, Darwin enlisted Gray's assistance, and explained his evolutionary views to him. Gray was a major supplier of botanical information, especially in relation to biogeography, and they corresponded extensively. Gray supported evolution, opposing his colleague Louis Agassiz. However, he remained a devout theist, and tried to reconcile Darwin's theories with Christian theology. Darwin rebutted Gray's arguments in favor of design in the last chapter of the Variation. Darwin dedicated his book The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same Species to him.

German zoologist. Although trained as a physician he never practiced, and became a professor at Jena. An early convert to Darwinism, he soon developed his own version, and was a prolific writer of both scientific and popular works that were very influential. He was also a very successful teacher, with many eminent students. Although largely remembered for the aphorism stating that "ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny" the idea was by no means original with him but was largely derivative of the work of Fritz Müller, who in turn was profoundly influenced by Darwin. Haeckel was very controversial, and often offended people as a result of his criticisms of his colleagues and his opposition to established religion. Darwin expressed admiration for Haeckel's work, and seems to have enjoyed Haeckel's visits to his home at Down.

He was most unusual among Darwin's contemporaries in having an excellent understanding of natural selection. His book Für Darwin extended Darwin's ideas on the relationship between ontogeny and phylogeny, and was the first application of the theory of recapitulation to evolutionary biology. Much of his early systematic and evolutionary work was based upon Crustacea, including barnacles. Darwin arranged for Müller's book to be translated into English and

Walker, Francis
July 31, 1809 — October 5, 1874
Arno's Grove, Southgate, England — Wanstead, Essex, England
English entomologist who worked at the British Museum. For taxonomic descriptions he was paid a schilling per new species and a pound per new genus. The result was a world record of 20,000 species. As one might expect, the quantity of his output was to some extent offset by the amount of harm he did. Walker described many of the insects from the Beagle voyage and identified Diptera for Darwin's work on orchids.

Entomologist. Born in England, he immigrated to the United States and ultimately had enough private means to devote most of his time to science. They were introduced when Darwin was a student at Cambridge, where Walsh became a Fellow. An important supporter of Darwin, he criticized the views of Louis Agassiz. Walsh provided Darwin with much useful information about insects, particularly with respect to sexual selection.
