Charles Darwin: gentleman naturalist. This site contains the largest collection of his writings ever published. Darwin's writings are consequently of interest to an extremely large number and wide variety of readers. His brilliantly original work in geology, botany, biogeography, invertebrate zoology, psychology and scientific travel writing would still make him one of the most original and influential workers in the history of science. Yet even without his evolutionary works, Darwin's accomplishments would be difficult to match. In geology, zoology, taxonomy, botany, palaeontology, philosophy, anthropology, psychology, literature and theology Darwin's writings produced profound reactions, many of which are still ongoing.
