Huxley and Darwin’s correspondence involved their detailed discussions on evolutionary theory. Darwin shared ideas about natural selection, the process where species adapt over time. Huxley, a strong supporter, questioned and clarified aspects of Darwin’s work, helping to defend and refine the theory. Their letters exchanged scientific insights, evidence, and debates, shaping modern understanding of evolution. This collaboration was crucial in gaining acceptance for Darwin’s ideas within the scientific community and demonstrating the importance of open dialogue in advancing knowledge.
