Now in an archival quality (removable) Brodart cover. First single-volume synthesis of the geological and archaeological evidence for dating human fossil remains.

Oakley (1911-1981), of the British Museum (Natural History), developed fluorine-absorption dating of bone and was one of the three scientists who exposed the Piltdown forgery in 1953. By his preface, the book was begun in 1958, the Darwin Centenary year, at the urging of Sir Gavin de Beer.
