Darwin: Reluctant Rebel

Biographer James Moore explains that Darwin developed his theory of evolution by natural selection at a time when creationism dominated the public thinking. In this video from Evolution: Darwin's Dangerous Idea, Darwin is seen arguing for his theory with creationist thinkers, including the HMS Beagle's Captain FitzRoy, Darwin's colleagues, and even with his own wife, Emma.
