Dr William Charles Wells FRS FRSE FRCP (24 May 1757 – 18 September 1817) was a Scottish-American physician and printer. He lived a life of extraordinary variety, did some notable medical research, and made the first clear statement about natural selection. He applied the idea to the origin of different skin colours in human races, and from the context it seems he thought it might be applied more widely. Charles Darwin said: "[Wells] distinctly recognises the principle of natural selection, and this is the first recognition which has been indicated".

  • William Charles Wells, född den 24 maj 1757 i Charleston, South Carolina, död den 18 september 1817 i London, var en skotsk läkare. Wells var praktiserande läkare i London från 1785. Han utgav i London 1814 en avhandling om dagg och flera närbesläktade företeelser (An essay on dew, and several appearances connected with it; 2:a upplagan 1815), vari en på noggranna iakttagelser och rön grundad riktig teori för dessa dittills orätt tolkade företeelser framställdes. Wells teori har blivit fullständigt bekräftad genom senare forskares (särskilt Mellonis) arbeten. Före Wells ansåg fysikerna antingen, att daggen faller som ett fint regn ur luften (en åsikt, som uttalades redan av Aristoteles och som funnit sitt uttryck i det ännu allmänna talesättet "daggen faller") eller att den uppstiger ur jo (sv)
