Why arent we more like other apes? How did we win the evolutionary race? Find out how wise Homo sapiens really are. Prehistory has never been more exciting: New discoveries are overturning longheld theories left and right. Stone tools in Australia date back 65,000 yearsa time when, we once thought, the first Sapiens had barely left Africa. DNA sequencing has unearthed a new hominid groupthe Denisovansand confirmed that crossbreeding with them (and Neanderthals) made Homo sapiens who we are today.A Pocket History of Human Evolution brings us uptodate on the exploits of all our ancient relatives. Paleoanthropologist Silvana Condemi and science journalist Franois Savatier consider what accelerated our evolution: Was it tools, our large brains, language, empathy, or something else entirely? And why are we the sole survivors among many early bipedal humans? Their conclusions reveal the various ways ancient humans live on todayfrom gossip as modern grooming to our gendered division of laborand what the future might hold for our strange and unique species. 18 twocolor illustrations
