The Descent Of Man And Selection In Relation To Sex
The Descent Of Man And Selection In Relation To Sex
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In the discussion on Sexual Selection in my 'Descent of Man,' no case interested and perplexed me so much as the brightly-coloured hinder ends and adjoining parts of certain monkeys. As these parts are more brightly coloured in one sex than the other, and as they become more brilliant during the season of love, I concluded that the colours had been gained as a sexual attraction.
