The Dark Side of Charles Darwin

---

The book "The Dark Side of Charles Darwin" by Jerry Bergman delves into the controversial aspects of Charles Darwin's life and work. It claims that Darwin's methods were less than above board, suggesting he plagiarized ideas from other pre-Darwinian evolutionists and possibly from Edward Blyth and Alfred Russel Wallace. The book also alleges that Darwin was psychologically unbalanced and held immoral views, such as racism and sexism. These claims are presented as evidence to discredit both Darwin and the scientific community that values his theory. However, the book's arguments have been critiqued for numerous logical inconsistencies and poor editing, making it difficult to support the claims with good scholarship.
