الوصف:I can imagine how, over 150 years ago, Emma Darwin showed her usual patience and love when her husband Charles began to submerge land snails in seawater. What was Charles trying to do? Actually, he was trying to solve one of the great mysteries of nature, how the slow and fragile land snails appear in the midst of the deadliest deserts, and on distant islands that were never connected to a continent.
