Description
On this day 150 years ago two men changed the way we look at the world. After years of formulating his ideas on evolution by natural selection Charles Darwin realised that he wasn’t alone: Alfred Russel Wallace had an identical theory ready for publication. Was it coincidence or just a matter of time that the only credible explanation for evolution would be discovered by someone else? Join us to find out more about their great idea that underpins biology and so much more.
