Description - The Emergence of Humans by Patricia J. Ash
The Emergence of Humans is an accessible, informative
introduction to the scientific study of human evolution. It takes
the reader through time following the emergence of the modern human
species Homo sapiens from primate roots. Acknowledging the
controversy surrounding the interpretation of the fossil record,
the authors present a balanced approach in an effort to do justice
to different views.
Each chapter covers a significant time period of evolutionary
history and includes relevant techniques from other disciplines
that have applications to the field of human evolution.
Self-assessment questions linked to learning outcomes are provided
for each chapter, together with further reading and reference to
key sources in the primary literature. The book will thus be
effective both as a conventional textbook and for independent
study.
Written by two authors with a wealth of teaching experience
The Emergence of Humans will prove invaluable to students in
the biological and natural sciences needing a clear, balanced
introduction to the study of human evolution.
