    The document discusses the history of the development of the theory of evolution by natural selection. Charles Darwin first proposed the theory in 1859 in his book On the Origin of Species, where he argued that species evolve over generations through the natural selection of small, inherited variations that increase the individual's ability to survive and reproduce. The theory was controversial at the time but is now accepted by the scientific community as it has held up under rigorous scientific testing and examination.
