Condition: Very Good. : En este fascinante estudio antropológico, Craig Stanford explora el misterio de la evolución humana, argumentando que la clave de nuestro desarrollo no reside en el tamaño del cerebro o el lenguaje, sino en la capacidad de caminar erguidos. El autor, codirector del Centro de Investigación Jane Goodall, utiliza descubrimientos recientes para desmantelar la visión lineal de la evolución y proponer una historia mucho más compleja y rica sobre nuestros orígenes.Stanford detalla cómo el bipedismo permitió a nuestros ancestros adaptarse a nuevos entornos, mejorar sus técnicas de caza y, eventualmente, proporcionar el sustento necesario para el crecimiento del cerebro humano. A través de una narrativa cautivadora, el libro ofrece una perspectiva fresca sobre qué es lo que realmente nos hace humanos, integrando investigaciones de campo y análisis científicos de vanguardia.
