A foundational work of scientific literature by Charles Darwin, published in 1859. It introduced the theory of evolution by natural selection, proposing that species evolve over generations through a process of natural and sexual selection.
Darwin had worked out natural selection by 1838, but kept the idea in a drawer for 20 years, two decades, because he was too cautious to publish it.
""Charles Darwin is mentioned as having 'worked out natural selection' but delaying its publication. 'On the Origin of Species' is his most famous and relevant work, directly related to the scientific concept discussed."
