註釋Darwin has long been one of the most intensively studied men of science in history. One might easily assume that there were no significant aspects of his life that had not already been revealed. And yet there is a fascinating side to Darwin's public life that is still almost completely unknown. From July 1857 until he died in April 1882, Darwin was a justice of the peace (JP). Although the bare fact that he was a JP has been known and mentioned in the literature on Darwin from the very beginning, so far only brief mentions or summaries have ever appeared. The reason for this brevity and vagueness is that the official case records are lost.
