From Google Books: "George John, Romanes (1848-94) was considered by The Times to be 'the, biological investigator upon whom in England the mantle of Mr., Darwin has most conspicuously descended'. Incorporating some of, Darwin's unpublished notes, this book explores the question of, whether human intelligence evolved. In a stance still often, considered controversial at the time of its first printing in, 1888, the first half establishes a link between humans and, animals, and introduces some of the most important issues of, nineteenth-century evolutionary psychology: the impact of, relative brain sizes of humans and primates, the origin of, self-consciousness and the possible reasons behind the apparent, mental stasis of what Romanes terms 'savage man'. Following the, argument that one of the main factors to be considered is, language, the second half focuses on philology."
