The works of Charles Darwin are a delight to read, even more than
100 years after they were written. But of all his books, the most
sensational of its day was The Expression of the Emotions in Man
and Animals - because it was the one book in which Darwin
explicitly treated human beings as the subjects of study in exactly
the same way as other animals. Not many people realize that in so
doing he invented the scientific discipline now known as
sociobiology. This delightful reprint of Darwin's classic work has
been reset (none of your fuzzy photographic copying of old text
here) with additional material by Darwin scholar Paul Ekman setting
the work in context. An absolute must for anyone interested in
science. (Kirkus UK)
The definitive edition of Darwin’s classic – a brilliantly
entertaining and accessible exploration of human and animal
behaviour, reissued to mark the 200th anniversary of Darwin’s
birth. Why do we bite people we feel affection towards? Why do dogs
wag their tails? Or cats purr? Why do we get embarrassed, and why
does embarrassment make us blush? These and many other questions
about the emotional life of man and animals are answered in this
remarkable book. Expression is the only book in which Darwin
sketches out his revolutionary ideas about human behaviour in
detail: he discusses childhood learning, insanity, painting and
sculpture, animal behaviour and the differences in facial
expression of the world’s peoples.
