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.
