The present book entitled 'Recent Discoveries and Perspectives in
Human Evolution' is the outcome of the International conference
panel BH13 'Exploring Human Origins: Exciting Discoveries at the
Start of the 21st Century' organized by Dr A.R. Sankhyan under the
auspices of the 17th IUAES in August 2013 at Manchester (U.K.). The
scholars who attended the conference came from many countries and
the contributions included here represent almost all continents.
The book covers a wide range of topics of special interest to
researchers in human evolution in the field of palaeoanthropology.
They include new hominoid and hominin discoveries, ancient
genomics, prehistoric archaeology, bio-stratigraphy, palaeoecology,
palaeo-environments, Palaeo-habitats, ancient cranial surgical
practices across continents and archaeo-astronomy. There are
special critical observations on the prehistoric Denisovans, on the
origins of the Andaman pygmies and Indonesian Hobbits, on Indian
prehistoric rock art and concerns for the biosphere reserves.
Overall, it also attracts social and cultural historians and
general readers interested in the evolvution of man and the
expansion of humanity.
