Book Description

January 11, 1974 0122367502 978-0122367502
In Darwin and Facial Expression, Paul Ekman and a cast of other notable scholars and scientists reconsider central concepts and key sources of information in Darwin’s work on emotional expression. It was first published in 1972 to celebrate the centennial of the publication of Darwin’s book The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals, and it is the first of three works edited by Dr. Ekman and others on the subject. This Malor edition has new and updated references.

Darwin claimed that we cannot understand human emotional expression without understanding the emotional expressions of animals, for, he argued, our emotional expressions are in large part determined by our evolution. Not only are there similarities between man and certain other animals in the appearance of some emotional expressions, but the principles which explain why a particular emotional expression occurs with a particular emotion apply across species.' -- From the Preface
--This text refers to the Kindle Edition edition.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too many BIG words for me., November 16, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I've read unmasking the face by Ekman about 5 times and loved it. This however is a whole different game. This book is not for the everyday man. If you buy it read it next to your laptop with Wikipedia at the ready.
