About this listen
What can fossilized teeth tell us about our ancient life expectancy? What can big data on fossils reveal about farming's problematic role in human evolution? How can simple geometric comparisons of skull and pelvic fossils suggest an origin to our social nature?
In Close Encounters with Humankind, paleoanthropologist Sang-Hee Lee explores some of our biggest evolutionary questions from unexpected new angles. Through a series of entertaining, bite-sized chapters, we gain new perspectives into our first hominin ancestors, our first steps on two feet, our first forays into toolmaking and hunting, and of course our continuing evolution.
©2015 Sang-Hee Lee and Shin-Young Yoon (P)2018 HighBridge, a division of Recorded BooksI find the idea of other species of humans fascinating and would highly recommend this book to someone else who is looking to find out more on the subject.
The reading is calming and well spoken.
Thank you.
A great book
