the story of how we became the unique creatures we are today.
Illuminated by the latest scientific discoveries, THE BOOK OF
HUMANS is a dazzling compendium of what unequivocally fixes us as
animals, and reveals how we are extraordinary among them. *** 'Adam

borderlands of history, archaeology, genetics and anthropology in
this fascinating tour of our species' DAN SNOW 'This superbly
accessible discussion about who we humans really are is important

information. I learned more about biology from this short book than
I did from years of science lessons' PETER FRANKOPAN 'An
outstandingly clear and witty account that shows beyond doubt how
much we are part of the animal world, and yet at the same time how
different we have become' HENRY MARSH
