What is Contrast?

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them. However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different. It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted. A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent. However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

Charles Darwin by Peter Bowler

This paper summarizes the arguments put forth by Peter Bowler in his book Charles Darwin: The Man and His Influence. Darwin's theory of natural selection is seen in its full historical context. Particular attention is paid to the way in which Darwin's ideas derive from those of previous scientists, particularly the French theorist of evolution Jean-Baptiste Lamarck and the English geologist Charles Lyell. The empirical evidence whereby Darwin arrived at the theory of natural selection is discussed, and finally the question is addressed as to whether Darwin's theory agreed with or contradicted standard Victorian notions about progress.
