The most popular of Darwin’s books during his lifetime, in a beautifully illustrated new edition
Featuring dozens of color photographs from Darwin’s original publication, this edition—issued to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Darwin’s birth—makes this classic study newly accessible to modern readers. Published in 1872, The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals was a book at the very heart of Darwin’s research interests. Darwin’s main goal was to demonstrate the power of his theories for explaining the origin of our most cherished human qualities, morality and intellect. The work engages some of the hardest questions in the evolution debate, and it shows the ever-cautious Darwin at his boldest.
“ He who admits, on general grounds, that the structure and habits of all animals have been gradually evolved will look at the whole subject of Expression in a new and interesting light.”
—Charles Darwin
