The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals, Charles Darwin

First edition, second state with "that" spelled incorrectly on the first line of p. 208 (as "htat"). Darwin's third major work of evolutionary theory and a foundational work in evolutionary psychology, Expression of the Emotions explores the biological origins of human and animal expression, arguing for their continuity across species. It forms a crucial part of his broader theory of evolution. It was "written, in part at least, as a confutation of the idea that the facial muscles of expression in man were a special endowment." Illustrated with heliotype plates—among the earliest published photographs in a scientific work—featuring subjects such as Darwin’s own children, asylum patients, and animals. (Freeman 1142)

London: John Murray, 1872. Publisher's original green cloth, spine lettered in gilt; pp. vi, 374 + 4 ads dated November 1872, with 7 heliotype plates (3 folding), woodcut illustrations within text, many full-page. About very good. Light wear and rubbing to boards, rear hinge just barely starting but still secure, text block a touch shaken and overopened at points. Owner's signature to verso of front endpaper, a couple light stains to title page, scattered minor foxing and toning, else internally clean.
