DarwinOs Legacy: Scenarios in Human Evolution compares ideas about
human evolution Darwin published in The Descent of Man in 1891 to
30 scenarios about the evolution of such unique human
characteristics as bipedalism, hairless skin, secondary sex
characters, language and culture that anthropologists and
psychologists published between 1950 and 2006. It evaluates ideas
about hunting and scavenging, aimed throwing, primitive warfare,
aquatic life, courtship, and sign language in light of modern data
on genetics, stone tools, fossils, and primate behavior. Parallels
between DarwinOs ideas and those of modern researchers are
striking.
