The emergence of modern human beings (Homo sapiens) some 35,000 years ago, has been the subject of much research and heated debate, not to mention controversy. That the Neandertals should disappear when their physical strength and mental ability were of such a great standard has perplexed scientists for decades, if not centuries. Not only is Shreeve's book a lucid account of the neverending research into the subject, but it also presents the main scientists that have contributed to this investigation.
