The Descent of Man applies evolutionary theory to human evolution, and details Darwin's theory of sexual selection, a form of biological adaptation distinct from, yet interconnected with, natural selection.This book presents a full explanation of Darwin's ideas, including his belief that many important characteristics of human beings and animals have emerged in response to competition for mates.
