Darwin's book is titled "The Descent of Man" to emphasize the idea that humans share a common ancestry with other species, highlighting our evolutionary roots rather than an upward progression. The term "descent" reflects the evolutionary process of divergence from common ancestors, suggesting that humans have evolved from simpler forms of life. This perspective challenges the notion of humans as a pinnacle of creation, instead placing us within the broader context of the tree of life.
