Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Humans - who are we? Physically, Homo sapiens is unremarkable in the animal world - a hairless ape. But somehow, in combination, our characteristics make us remarkable. With our dexterity and brain power, we discovered ways of finding food and beating the elements not only in our home on the African savanna, but in every habitat from jungle to Arctic waste. Humans tells the story of our evolution with beautiful illustrations of our seemingly ordinary anatomy alongside colourful, mind-expanding graphics of what we have achieved with it.This book is:shaped and guided by broadcaster and expert in anatomy and archaeology, Professor Alice Robertswritten by an international team of experts in many fields of human evolution, including archaeology, palaeontology, anthropology, and cognitive sciencebuilt from chapters about the evolution of different parts of the body, giving an instant, familiar way in to the topicThis thought-provoking book presents the latest advances in understanding human evolution, challenging old myths and baked-in misconceptions - all through the lens of the human body. Each chapter tackles a different body part, showing how it has evolved and the role it has played.

When did we invent clothes? Did we always form pair bonds? How did prehistoric people cross the ocean? Are we the only animals to become self-aware?Find out who we are, where we come from, and perhaps - where we're going.…
