Human Evolution

A comprehensive treatment of human origins; one of biology’s most controversial and rapidly changing topics. With an engaging treatment of primate biology and comprehensive up-to-date coverage of both human physical and cultural evolution, Human Evolution is the perfect supplement for both biology and anthropology students. This considerably revised edition includes clear explanations of the interpretations and significance of recent fossil finds (e.g. H. floresiensis and Ardi) and examines how modern biochemical analyses are being used to provide new prespectives on the human story.
