"Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature" is an 1863 book by Thomas Henry Huxley and arguably the first to discuss human evolution. It came five years after Charles Darwin announced his and Alfred Russel Wallace's theory of evolution by means of natural selection, four years after the publication of Darwin's "Origin of Species" and eight years "before" Darwin's The Descent of Man, and Selection in relation to Sex (1871).
