Publisher's Synopsis

""The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals"" is a pioneering work in the field of psychology written by the renowned naturalist and scientist, Charles Darwin. The book was first published in 1872 and explores the ways in which humans and animals express and communicate their emotions through facial expressions and body language. Darwin's research is based on extensive observation of human and animal behavior, as well as experiments he conducted on himself and his family. He argues that emotions are innate and universal, and that they are expressed in similar ways across different cultures and species. He also discusses the evolutionary origins of emotions and their role in survival and adaptation.The book is divided into three parts. The first part focuses on the expression of emotions in humans, including anger, fear, surprise, and joy. The second part examines the expression of emotions in animals, including dogs, cats, horses, and primates. The third part discusses the evolution of emotions and the relationship between emotions and human psychology.""The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals"" is a seminal work in the field of psychology and has had a significant impact on our understanding of the nature and function of emotions. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the science of emotions, human behavior, and evolutionary biology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
