Darwin's theory of evolution is based on key facts and the inferences drawn from them, which biologist Ernst Mayr summarised as follows: -Every species is fertile enough that if all offspring survived to reproduce, the population would grow (fact). -Despite periodic fluctuations, populations remain roughly the same size. -Resources such as food are limited and are relatively stable over time. -A struggle for survival ensues (inference). -Individuals in a population vary significantly from one another. -Much of this variation is heritable.

Autorenporträt
Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882) was born in Shropshire, England. His first text chronicling his five-year voyage on the HMS Beagle, which included his notable visit to the Galapagos Islands, earned him success as an author in 1839. His observations from the Galapagos, alongside an interest in natural history from an early age and studies over the consequent years, informed the development of his biological theories, culminating the ground-breaking text 'On the Origin of Species' for which he is best known.
