520 1 "This book tells the story of human evolution, the epic of
Homo sapiens and its colorful precursors and relatives.
The story begins in Africa, six to seven million years ago,
and encompasses twenty-two known human species, of which
Homo sapiens is the sole survivor. Illustrated with
spectacular, three-dimensional scientific reconstructions
portrayed in their natural habitat - the result of
creative collaboration between physical anthropologist
G.J. Sawyer of the American Museum of Natural History and
paleoartist Viktor Deak, in consultation with experts from
around the world - the book is both a guide to extinct
human species and an astonishing hominid family photo
album."--BOOK JACKET.
