His paper was presented before the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1788. His theory helped Darwin greatly because Darwin began observing rocks and fossils.

but there is one theory that has altered the way the human race thinks about how life had come about‚ and the changes millions of species around the world have made in the past to get to where they are today. The idea of simple organisms migrating‚ dying off‚ adapting‚ thriving and changing to fit their needs of survival was unheard of‚ or solely disregarded‚ for it was not supported by many or misunderstood.

briefly describe the evolutionary theory in general‚ and specifically as it relates to the study of criminology. I will examine the ways in which natural selection has shaped the processes which motivate human behavior‚ especially in terms of how competing for limited resources and ensuring that one’s genetic code is passed on are linked to aggressive behavior. Two crimes of which I have personal knowledge will be evaluated‚ with emphasis placed on the ways in which evolutionary theory may account
