Description
Steve Olson's Mapping Human History is a groundbreaking synthesis of science and history that explores our shared human origins across four continents over the past 150,000 years.
Olson draws on genetic research, linguistic evidence, and archaeological findings to reveal surprising unity among modern humans and challenge common assumptions about our ancestry. He offers new perspectives on topics such as agriculture, the peopling of the Americas, language origins, and Jewish history.
This engaging account will change how you think about yourself and your place in the world, providing a fresh understanding of what it means to be human.
