Powered by JRank Biology Reference Biology Ep-Fl Evolution The remains of stadiums, temples, and aqueducts indicate as clearly as any ancient document that the Roman Empire once existed. Likewise, fossils speak eloquently of a time when dinosaurs and not humans dominated Earth. Even without ancient ruins, similarities in appearance, language, customs, and genetic makeup show that the Italians, Spanish, English, and French all came from the same ancestral culture. Likewise, similarities in structure and genetic makeup persuade humankind that algae and plants, insects and crustaceans, chimpanzees and humans came from the same ancestral species. how evolution occurs, not whether it occurs. There are, in fact, several theories of evolution. Like evolution itself, some of these theories are well supported by observations and experiments. Development of Evolutionary Theory Charles Darwin was well aware of the controversy over evolution. As a theology student at Cambridge University with a passion for biology, he heard his professors dismiss evolution as nonsense, and he saw no reason to doubt them. Between 1831 and 1836, however, while serving as naturalist on an around-the-world voyage of The Beagle

Home Biology Botany Charles Darwin and evolution The author has graciously shared with readers of the Victorian Web this essay from his rich Alfred Russel Wallace site , which contains extensive bibliographies of primary and secondary materials, a section on frequently asked questions, and a wealth of primary documents and portraits. Young Alfred's childhood was a happy one, but at times difficult for lack of money. Four of his five older sisters did not live beyond the age of twenty-two, and Wallace himself was not always in the best of health. He found the grammar school he attended in Hertford rather tedious, but for a time was privy to plenty of good reading materials, his father being a town librarian for some years. About 1835 the elder Wallace was swindled out of his remaining property and the family fell on really hard times; young Wallace was forced to withdraw from school around Christmas 1836 and was sent to London to room with his older brother John. The ensuing several month experience was critical to his future intellectual development, as there he first came into contact with supporters of the utopian socialist Robert Owen. In his autobiography My Life he recollects that he even once heard Owen himself speak; from that point on he would describe himself in disciple terms.

Wallace, Alfred Russel: Contributions to Astronomy Charles H. Smith, Ph.D. Western Kentucky University, Bowling Green, Kentucky Author's note: A preprint of an article published in Thomas Hockey et al., editors, The Biographical Encyclopedia of Astronomers, Volume 2 (Springer, 2007). Wallace, Alfred Russel. Born: Usk, Monmouthshire (historically Gwent), Wales, UK, 8 January 1823. Died: Wimborne, near Bournemouth, Dorset, England, UK, 7 November 1913. Although Alfred Russel Wallace made significant contributions to astronomy, he is best known as a central figure in the emergence of the fields of evolutionary biology and biogeography. Wallace's name is now inextricably linked with the Malay Archipelago, where eight years of fieldwork (1854-1862) secured for him a reputation among future generations as history's greatest tropical naturalist. While there he thought out the theory of natural selection; the famous essay on the subject he sent to Charles Darwin is now well known to have propelled the latter into finally committing his own ideas to paper in On the Origin of Species in 1859. Over the same period Wallace made fundamental contributions to the study of biotic distribution patterns, and is now regarded as the father of the science of zoogeography. Wallace returned to England in 1862, thereafter settling down to a long career of study and writing.

Alfred Russel Wallace was born on January 8th, 1823, near the town of Usk in Monmouthshire, to Thomas Vere Wallace (died May 1843) and Mary Anne Wallace (n�e Greenell; died 15 November 1868). The family moved to Hertford, Essex, in about 1826. Their father, originally a gentleman of independent means and a non-practicing solicitor, lost money in unsuccessful financial speculation and took up a series of low-paid jobs, and the family moved several times for economic reasons. When Mrs Greenell, Mary Wallace's stepmother, died in 1826, the family moved to her home-town, Hertford, in Essex. Here ARW met another child, George Silk, who became a lifelong friend and correspondent. The Wallaces lived first in a house in Andrews Street, next at an address in Old Cross, a short distance away. Other members of the family included Aunt Wilson, Mary Anne Wallace's sister, wife of Thomas Wilson, lawyer, who in 1826 lived in Dulwich. Thomas Wilson was controlling trustee of a Greenell family legacy which paid for, among other things, John Wallace's board, and held money in trust for the other Wallace children. When Thomas Wilson was declared bankrupt in 1834, the legacy became involved and the Wallace's income was drastically reduced.

Alfred Russel Wallace Alfred Russel Wallace. This venerable naturalist outlived Darwin and became the grand old man of science until he died in 1913 As a young man, Wallace taught in the Collegiate School, Leicester . While in Leicester, a chance meeting with Henry Walter Bates in the public library led to a close friendship, and to their plan for a joint expedition to the Brazilian Amazon. Wallace on species: "Species are merely those strongly marked races or local forms which, when in contact, do not intermix, and when inhabiting distinct areas are generally regarded to have had a separate origin, and to be incapable of producing a fertile hybrid offspring. But as the test of hybridity cannot be applied in one case in ten thousand, and even if it could be applied, would prove nothing, since it is founded on an assumption of the very question to be decided and as the test of origin is in every case inapplicable and as, further, the test of non-intermixture is useless, except in those rare cases where the most closely allied species are found inhabiting the same area, it will be evident that we have no means whatever of distinguishing so-called "true species" from the several modes of variation here pointed out, and into which they so often pass by an insensible gradation."
