Synopsis
Lord Castlereagh, the early 19th century Tory Foreign Secretary, was a depressive. He committed suicide, and his nephew's fear of inheriting his madness led him to take a world cruise for the British Admiralty. He sought a companion to guard against his black moods and Charles Darwin got the job. Darwin's theory of evolution, argues the author, may never have developed if this series of events had not occured. This book is a metaphor for the way individuals and unpredictable events influence history. In response history, suggests the author, is the best model for evolution. The author explores the science of improbable outcomes in this wide ranging book written on the evolutionary theme. Stephen Jay Gould also wrote "Wonderful Life".
