Happy Darwin Day! February 12th marks the anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth. In celebration, I managed to dig up some little known details about his life.
I spoke with David Quammen, author of "The Reluctant Mr. Darwin: An Intimate Portrait of Charles Darwin and the Making of his Theory of Evolution" and his newest book, "Spillover: Animal Infections and the Next Human Pandemic." He told me some of the things he discovered while researching for "The Reluctant Mr. Darwin."
Take this for example: the last book Darwin published was about earthworms, and he was obsessed with the question of why men have nipples.
