371. Charles Darwin: Greatest Scientist of All Time? (English Vocabulary Lesson)
Thinking in EnglishShow Notes
In the 19th century, a quiet, curious naturalist named Charles Darwin proposed a theory that went on the shake science, religion, and philosophy. Darwin introduced a new way of thinking about life itself.
His theory of evolution by natural selection revealed that every species (humans included) changes over time, adapts to its environment, and shares common ancestors.
In today’s episode of Thinking in English, I want to explore the life of Charles Darwin, look closely at his most important discoveries, and discuss how his ideas still influence modern biology.
And finally, we’ll discuss a big question: Is Charles Darwin the greatest scientist of all time?
And while we are doing this, we’ll practice our English listening comprehension and learn some new English vocabulary!
