Wiktor Stoczkowski, a palaeo-anthropologist, argues that the
theories of human origins developed by archaeologists and physical
anthropologists from the early nineteenth century to the present
day are structurally similar to Western folk theories, and to the
speculations of earlier philosophers. Reviewing a remarkable range
of thinkers writing in a variety of European languages, he makes a
convincing argument for this case. Even though the book criticises
the lack of development in theories of human origins, its
conclusion is optimistic about the power of the scientific approach
to deliver more reliable theories - but only if the influences of
popular discourse on its thinking are properly identified.
