Description
Charles Darwin's "The Descent of Man" is a foundational text on the science of human evolution, first published in 1871. The book explores the evolution of man in terms of physical and mental traits, and examines the debate on whether humans of different races were of different species. Darwin's systematic approach to understanding human development and variation has had a lasting impact on scientific thought. This edition of "The Descent of Man" presents Darwin's groundbreaking ideas on evolution, sexual selection, and natural selection, and their implications for civilized society. The book's three-part structure considers the purpose of human existence, the manner of human development, and the value of differences between human races. Printed on premium acid-free paper, this edition is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the science of human evolution.
