What makes us human, and where did we come from? How did a clever
ape climb down from the trees and change the world like no other
animal has done before? This large-format, highly illustrated book
guides readers through the key aspects of the human story, from the
anatomical changes that allowed us to walk upright and increased
brain size in our ancestors, to the social, cultural, and economic
developments of our more recent cousins and our own species. Along
the way, focus spreads take a closer look at some of the key
species in our history, from the ancient Australopithecus
Afarensis, 'Lucy', to our recent cousins the Neanderthals and
ourselves, Homo sapiens. Looking beyond the anatomical evolution of
humans, this book explores how our culture and way of living has
evolved, from how trails of cowry shells reveal early trade between
tribes, to how and why humans first domesticated dogs, horses, and
farm animals, and began settling in permanent villages and cities.
Through digestible information and absorbing illustration, young
readers will be given an insight into their own origins, and what
it really means to be a human.
