‎HUXLEY, Thomas Henry‎

‎Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature.‎

‎London: Williams and Norgate 1863. Exploring human evolution some seven years before Darwin's Descent of Man First edition first issue presentation copy inscribed in a secretarial hand "from the author" on the half-title. Evidence is Huxley's key work deliberately written for a non-specialist audience and among his most influential contributions to the theory of human evolution being the first to bring together anatomical and embryonic evidence. In the Origin of Species Darwin carefully avoided the implications of his theory for humanity but Huxley boldly brought them to the fore. In the early 1860s Richard Owen had asserted that human and ape brains were fundamentally different and that the hippocampus minor was exclusively found in humans. In Evidence Huxley uses extensive dissectional evidence to disprove this emphasizing the human-ape commonality and relying on Darwinian evolution for his theoretical underpinnings. The work was also among the first to publicize the discovery of Neanderthal man. The first issue prints the frontispiece on the verso of the second leaf forming an integral part of the preliminaries and the "Advertisement to the Reader" appears on the recto of the fourth. Octavo pp. viii 159 1 8. Wood-engraved frontispiece extensive illustrations in the text. With 8 pp. of publisher's advertisements dated February 1863 at rear. Original green pebble-grain cloth spine lettered in gilt and ruled in blind covers panelled in blind brownish-red endpapers with printed advertisements. Near-contemporary blue ink ownership stamp of chemist and publisher John Balcomb 1841-1918 of Cheltenham to half-title. Infrequent pencil sidelining to contents. Light bumping wear and toning head of front joint starting infrequent minor foxing to otherwise fresh contents: a very good copy.

With the first issue point identified by Hook and Norman the frontispiece printed on A2v forming an integral part of the preliminaries and a likely issue point the catalogue dated February 1863.<br /><br />'Huxley earned the nickname "Darwin's bulldog" for his outspoken defense of the theory of evolution through natural selection particularly as it pertained to man. The present work grew out of the famous Hippocampus minor controversy of the early 1860s in which Huxley publicly challenged the taxonomist Richard Owen's claim that man's brain differed qualitatively from those of all other mammals. Through a series of dissections of primate brains Huxley disproved Owen's assertions that only man's brain possessed a Hippocampus minor and demonstrated that the differences between men and apes were smaller than those between apes and the lower primates' Hook and Norman The Norman Library of Science and Medicine 1132.<br /><br />'Written to be accessible Man's Place in Nature was ignored by the highbrows and abominated by the religious press but acquired a cachet among the middle-class public no less than among National Reformer secularists and Russian and German socialists' Oxford Dictionary of National Biography.<br /> Freeman British Natural History Books 1855; Hook & Norman The Norman Library of Science & Medicine 1132.
