the problem was darwin did not understand. he did not understand that with such a theory natural selection could never have really worked because you now imagine you have a population of a million white cats and one black cat and supposed being a black cat does provide you with some big advantages. but in this blending theory you mix things like gin and tonic, the black cat mates with a white cat and you get a gray cat. the gray cat mates with another white cat and you get a paler shade of gray cat. this thing just gets diluted and diluted and the black advantage will disappear and never appear again. so that was really the blunder. the way genetics really work as we know with mandolin all the work that followed is really more like shoveling decks of cards if you like. if i have an ace and having an ace is a good thing it doesn't matter how much i shuffle i will still have an ace in my hand. so this is how the genes don't change and they can be transferred and so on. so with the theory that he was operating, his theory could n

let's talk about each of these starting with darwin. he is known mostly the serial evolution. but as i understand it, he never really even use the term evolution in his actual original writings. >> guest: that's right, he never use the word evolution in his book. however, but the last part of the book has evolved but the word evolved has been a part of this. so you are right. i mean, it was not accepted and defined. but given that it has been like this, it has been much more popular. >> host: so the theory of natural selection later became adopted by those, can you tell us a little bit more about what drove him? >> basically he came out with the theory of evolution by means of natural selection. so he did one big theory, which was composed of a number of steps in it, for example, it was the concept of evolution and the species are not immutable, they change and so on and so forth. it was the concept of this that changes happen very slowly, like this and it is not that you with one species and you see it turning into another species. you have to wait hundreds of thousands of ge

let's start with charles darwin. but as i in the stand that he never even used the term evolution in his original lighting. >> guest: it is true. in the original book he never used the word evolution. however it has devolved. it does appear there in the last word of the book. but to except that at the time of. >> host: he was known more for natural selection in that theory them that concept of evolution it became adopted by those that use the evolution theory or tell us for about what drove him. >> guest: natural evolution by means of natural selection so his theory was composed of a number of steps in it with the concept of evolution in its self. hit changes with time and so on. and not that you'd get one species but you have to wait hundreds of thousands of generations where you start with one thing and it splits and it splits that is how you get the diversity than the common ancestry what we see with all the species it came from an initial form of life. then we have this one mechanism to support how does all of th

charles darwin was a brilliant thinker and brilliant explainer. one of the things i find surprising is the idea which is so simple. it came two years after newton and you might think that what he did as clever and more difficult to think of and invent the calculus working out of the optics and understanding gravity and all of mechanics. these are all supreme achievements of the human mind. 200 years before darwin. somebody that's written about science and ideas what was it like to write about yourself? >> quite difficult. >> i was persuaded by the british and american publishers worth doing. i like to think it is humorous and i like to think there are plenty of laughs to it i kind of enjoyed writing it. >> did you end up enjoying it? >> yes. reliving the memories isn't a systematic history of my life. i had in mind when i started writing it, so that kind of random memory i hope in a funny way as to encapsulate a life. estimate it will be in the bookstores in september of 2013. is this the american cover or the english and american -- >> that is th
