From the origins and development of apes and humans to the eventual domination of our own species, Homo sapiens. This up-to-the-minute account of human evolution spans 20 million years of history.
Written by two of the world’s foremost scientists in the field, every aspect of the study of ape and human evolution is explored in three accessible sections.
Lavishly illustrated with photographs, diagrams and specially commissioned reconstructions, this compelling and authoritative book is essential reading for anyone interested in the story of human origins.
