Darwin's Notes and Thoughts Go Online
The last week has been an interesting week for the Preaching Today blog. We have had more visitors to the blog than ever before. In fact, we have broken every record for the number of visitors to this blog not only for daily visitors but also the total for the month. What has brought so much attention to our blog? The issue of evolution and intelligent design. Tonight I have some new news to report about Charles Darwin that may be of interest to our readers:
The following was reported at Npr.org
Studying Charles Darwin's documents has evolved from visiting the library at Cambridge University to accessing the information online. The British university has just made a trove of about 20,000 papers from Darwin's life and studies accessible on the Web.
"It's really unprecedented that so much new material by and about Charles Darwin is suddenly made available to the public," John van Wyhe, director of the Darwin Online collection, tells Renee Montagne.
The material has been available to scholars for years at Cambridge.
"What we've done is taken much of that material and made it available for free to the whole world," van Wyhe says. "The amount of material is so vast that you could click on it for months and not see all of the images."
