Science: Charles Darwin
"Discover the man and the revolutionary theory that changed the course of science and 
society....For 21 years he kept his theory a secret....Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection underlies all modern biology. It enables us to decipher our genes and fight viruses, and to understand Earth's fossil record and rich biodiversity. Simple yet at times controversial, misunderstood and misused for social goals, the theory remains unchallenged as the central concept of biology. Charles Darwin, reluctant revolutionary, profoundly altered our view of the natural world and our place in it." -- from the website. <http://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/darwin/?src=e_f>
