Paperback. Kathy Diane Schick, Orion Publishing Co. By far the greatest part of human history has been taken up by peoples whose principal tool was the stone hand-axe. But until now, we knew very little about what the hand-axes were actually used for.

And their experiments provided new insights into theories of brain evolution and human development. Paperback.…
