About the Book

Evolution refers to the change in heritable features of biological populations over successive generations. These features are the expressions of genes passed on from parent to offspring in the course of reproduction. Characteristics tend to differ as a result of mutations, genetic recombination and other sources of genetic variation. When evolutionary processes like natural selection act on these variations, certain characteristics become more common or more rare in a population, and evolution occurs. This process has given rise to biodiversity at every level of biological organism, including molecules. The scientific theory of evolution by natural selection was famously proposed by Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace in the mid-19th century, and was detailed in Darwin's 1859 book On the Origin of Species.
