On the morning of November 24, 1859, Charles Darwinâs On the
Origin of Species made its first appearance and the world changed forever. An age of faith was plunged into profound religious doubt, and believers of every kind rose to pronounce anathema on Darwinâs godless tract, sparking a fresh battle in the long-running war between science and religion. But while the reactionaries raged, the scientific community soon came to accept natural selection, and the rediscovery of Gregor Mendelâs work in 1900 (which marked the founding of modern genetics) set the seal on Darwinâs triumph by providing the missing piece to his puzzle â a scientific understanding of just how inheritance works.
