Description
Human Origins: A 7-million-year journey through the evolution of humanity, from our earliest primordial roots to the present day.
For almost a century, scientists have been uncovering the secrets of human evolution, piecing together the story from rare fossil finds and new discoveries. Today, over 6,000 hominin individuals have been discovered, shedding light on how our brains developed, what we ate, and how we lived. This book brings together the latest scientific findings to explore some of the biggest questions that remain: what makes humans unique, where did the Neanderthals go, and are humans still evolving?
