There were, then, many reasons why Darwin should have been disposed in The Descent of Man to shrink from any substantive discussion of whether extinct human relatives might actually be represented in fossil form.
In "The Descent of Man," which appeared in 1871, Darwin mentioned Neanderthals only in passing.
Sexual selection isn't only about finding the strongest mate, he wrote in "The Descent of Man".
Charles Darwin calculated as much when he began telling the story in The Descent of Man (1871).
Prominent among these analyses is Charles Darwin's very interesting discussion of the origin of morals in The Descent of Man.
"The eye prefers symmetry or figures with some regularity," wrote Charles Darwin in The Descent of Man.
In The Descent of Man (1871) Darwin wrote about loving and cooperative behaviours in dogs, elephants, baboons, pelicans, and other species.
In "The Descent of Man," Darwin further argued that competition between individuals of the same sex within one species drives evolution.
Darwin himself, in "The Descent of Man," wrote, "We now know, through the admirable labours of Mr. Galton, that genius... tends to be inherited".
And that is surely better dealt with by giving a more realistic, more biological account of human social motivation, as Darwin did in The Descent of Man.
In "The Descent of Man," Darwin contended that "there is no fundamental difference between man and the higher mammals in mental faculties".
