naturalist, he is noted for his idea on "natural selection", which later attempts to unify many theories in the life

diverse living species — jumps out almost spontaneously.
So, too, the phrase "the survival of the fittest", though it was originally coined by English philosopher Herbert
Spencer before him in 1851. This expression appeared only in Darwin's fifth edition of Origin of Species (1869). |
