réf. 78530London John Murray 1872. REPRINT Bruxelles Culture et Civilisation 1969-1970. 8vo 21.5 x 14.0 cm. vi 374 pp.; 20 text illustrations six photographic plates two double-sized folded. Full mock leather. Spine with gilt title. = This is a seldom-seen luxury facsimile edition of Charles Darwin careful views on behaviour in animals and in the human species with a strong emphasis on the latter. This is widely regarded as Charles Darwin's third major work of evolutionary theory ".following On the Origin of Species 1859 and The Descent of Man and Selection in Relation to Sex 1871. Initially intended as a chapter in Descent of Man Expression grew in length and was published separately in 1872. Darwin explores the biological aspects of emotional behaviour and the animal origins of human characteristics like smiling and frowning shrugging shoulders lifting eyebrows in surprise and baring teeth in an angry sneer. Before Darwin human emotional life had posed problems to the traditional philosophical categories of mind and body. Darwin's interest in the subject can be traced to his time as an Edinburgh medical student and the 1824 edition of Anatomy and Philosophy of Expression by Charles Bell which argued for a spiritual dimension to the subject. In contrast Darwin's biological approach links emotions to their origins in animal behaviour allowing cultural factors only an auxiliary role in shaping the expression of emotion. This biological emphasis highlights six different emotional states: happiness sadness fear anger surprise and disgust. It also appreciates the universal nature of expression implying a shared evolutionary heritage for the entire human species. Darwin also points to the importance of emotional communication with children in their psychological development. . The book involves several innovations: Darwin circulated a questionnaire probably inspired by his cousin Francis Galton during his preparatory research; simple psychology experiments on the recognition of emotions with his friends and family; and like Duchenne de Boulogne a physician at the Salpêtrière Hospital the use of photography in his presentation of scientific information. Darwin's publisher warned him that including the photographs would "make a hole in the profits" of the book''." Wikipedia. A mint copy. hardcover

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

1872réf. 189795London: John Murray 1872. Completing Darwin's evolutionary writings First edition first issue "written as a confutation of the idea that the facial muscles of expression in man were a special endowment" Freeman. The plates are among the earliest commercially reproduced photographs in a scientific book. While researching this work Darwin invited the photographer Oscar Rejlander to make comparative studies of laughter and crying obtained photographs of asylum inmates from the asylum director James Crichton-Browne and consulted the French physiologist Guillaume Duchenne on his electrical research on facial muscles. In the first issue "that" is spelled correctly on the first line of page 208. The plates are lettered with Roman numerals; another state is known in Arabic numerals without priority of issue. Freeman suggests that the Arabic numeral plates were printed first but notes that "the two states seem to occur at random in the two issues of the text and Darwin's own copy at Cambridge has the Roman" Freeman.

1873réf. 852London: John Murray Albemarle Street 1873. Early John Murray printing 1873 “Tenth Thousand” of Darwin’s The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals one of his most influential and innovative works following The Descent of Man. In this groundbreaking study Darwin argues for the evolutionary continuity of emotional expression between humans and animals proposing that facial expressions gestures and bodily reactions are inherited traits shaped by natural selection. The book presents his famous three principles of expression—serviceable associated habits antithesis and direct action of the nervous system. Notably this work was among the first scientific books to incorporate photographic illustrations as evidentiary material. The heliotype plates of infants and patients including the well-known crying children plates were revolutionary for their time and reflect Darwin’s commitment to empirical documentation. Illustrated throughout with engravings by T. W. Wood and others including expressive studies of cats dogs birds and primates. A cornerstone text in evolutionary psychology behavioral science and the history of photography in scientific publishing. Condition & Binding: Original publisher’s green cloth with gilt spine lettering and decorative tooling. Boards show moderate rubbing and light wear at extremities; corners lightly bumped. Spine gilt remains bright and legible. Cloth remains clean with minor surface scuffing. Hinges secure; binding firm. Interior clean overall with light scattered foxing and minor spotting primarily to preliminaries and some margins. Overall- very good. John Murray, Albemarle Street unknown
