The brief length and focused coverage of "Human Evolution: An
Illustrated Introduction" have made this best-selling textbook the
ideal complement to any biology or anthropology course in which
human evolution is taught. The text places human evolution in the
context of humans as animals, while also showing the physical
context of human evolution, including climate change and the impact
of extinctions. Chapter introductions, numerous drawings and
photographs, and an essential glossary all add to the accessibility
of this text.The fifth edition has been thoroughly updated to
include coverage of the latest discoveries and perspectives,
including:
- New early hominid fossils from Africa and Georgia, and their
implications
- New archaeological evidence from Africa on the origin of modern
humans
- Updated coverage of prehistoric art, including new sites
- New perspectives on molecular evidence and their implications for
human population history.
