Spine ends and board edges a bit rubbed with tiny bit of cloth flaking at base of spine; internally complete and quite fresh the endpapers and hinges clean and strong text firm and unmarked; in all a tight Very Good copy. A key work in Darwin's evolutionary canon originally intended as a section of The Descent of Man but published separately for cost considerations. Darwin's meticulously documented thesis that certain expressions of emotion are if not universal then at least highly correlated across human cultures as well as across animal species has never been seriously challenged. The heliotype plates most of which are printed from original negatives represented an important milestone in scientific book illustration; they were included at considerable expense despite the objections of Darwin's publishers who warned that their inclusion would "poke a terrible hole" in the book's profits. A quite nice copy of a book which while not strictly uncommon is typically found well-worn. D. Appleton & Co unknown
