520    For evolutionary biologists, the concept of chance has 
       always played a significant role in the formation of 
       evolutionary theory. As far back as Greek antiquity, 
       chance and ""luck"" were understood to be key factors in 
       the evolution of the natural world. Emphasizing chance is 
       an entire way of thinking about nature, and it is also one
       of the key ideas that separates Charles Darwin from other 
       systematic biologists of his time. Studying the concept of
       chance in Darwin's writing reveals core ideas in his 
       theory of evolution, as well as his reflections on design,
       purpose, and randomness in nature's.
