-A book must be judged not only on its content, but also for the
perspectives it contains. Such a premises is indispensable to
evaluate the present book. The content is outstanding.... The book
will be... of central importance to a wide range of professionals,
including biologists, geneticists and any sort of anthropologists.
Reading it will moreover be an invaluable supplement for students
of theory of evolution and anthropology in the broadest sense.-
--A. B. Chiarelli, Man -As a centennial volume commemorating
Darwin's Descent of Man and Selection in Relation to Sex, Campbell
assembled eleven essays on issues of sexual selection and human
evolution which Darwin's work proposed.... [T]he book is... a
valuable collection which expands our understanding of sexual
selection.- --Adrienne Zihlman, American Anthropologist -[H]ighly
exciting book on modern evolutionary theory which began as a
tribute to Charles Darwin. If every scientific centennial were to
evoke a book half as stimulating, science might move forward much
faster even than it is now doing, for this volume opens up and
strengthens a borderland between disciplines that have had far too
little to say to each other in the past.- --Bentley Glass, The
Quarterly Review of Biology -In 1871 under the title The Descent of
Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex Darwin published a book that
dealt with human evolution and with sexual selection, or two books
bound together, one on each of these topics, or perhaps just part
of a book, the rest appearing a year later as The Expression of the
Emotions in Man and Animals. The event is commemorated here by 11
essays on the subjects considered in Darwin's classic.- --George C.
