Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals
The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals, published in 1872 by Charles Darwin, explores the genetic basis of emotional expression in humans and animals. This work, released alongside The Descent of Man, examines how certain human traits, such as facial expressions and body language, have evolutionary origins. It represents Darwin's significant contribution to psychology, drawing on insights from notable British psychiatrists. The book is notable for its early exploration of the connection between emotion and behavior in the context of evolution.
