About the book

Charles Darwin's The Descent of Man applies evolutionary theory to human beings and examines the role of sexual selection. Darwin considers human ancestry, behaviour, variation and the development of physical characteristics. The work extends the arguments of On the Origin of Species and remains an important text in the history of evolutionary biology.
