The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals: Tears, Fear, Rage, and the Animal Roots of Human Emotion - Softcover
Synopsis
The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals: Charles Darwin’s 1872 Scientific Study of Emotion - Unabridged & Authentic
Darwin’s Groundbreaking Study of Faces, Feelings, Instinct, and Expression
The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals is Charles Darwin’s classic investigation into how emotion appears in the face, body, voice, and behavior. Studying humans, animals, children, facial movement, gesture, fear, grief, anger, joy, shame, and surprise, Darwin argues that emotional expression is rooted in biology, habit, inheritance, and the shared history of life.
What You’ll Experience
- The science of expression: Darwin examines tears, smiles, frowns, blushing, trembling, gestures, posture, and the visible signs of emotion
- Humans and animals compared: dogs, cats, horses, monkeys, infants, adults, and cross-cultural examples are used to trace emotional behavior
- A landmark work after evolution: one of Darwin’s major later studies, extending evolutionary thinking into psychology, emotion, and human behavior
Perfect for readers of Darwin, psychology, evolution, animal behavior, human nature, and classic scientific works that changed how people understand the mind.
Why Readers Love The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals
Readers value this book because Darwin turns ordinary expressions into evidence. A blush, a grimace, a laugh, a raised eyebrow, or a frightened posture becomes part of a larger question: why do living beings show feeling the way they do? The result is a fascinating bridge between evolution, psychology, observation, and the visible language of emotion.
