DARWINISM

Darwinism is the term given to the theory of evolution which originates with the work of the Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882), particularly as expounded in his work On the Origin of Species (1859). It is the theory which claims that the truly significant cause of change is the ‘natural selection’ of some organisms over others.
Theory proposed that more organisms are born than can survive and reproduce, some have features which help them in the consequent ‘struggle for existence,’ and these are selected for all succeeding generations. There is change and the direction is towards ‘adaptive’ excellence, which enable them to survive and reproduce. These conclusions apply to all organisms including us humans,
