About this title

Synopsis

The edited and updated synthesis of a conference (on title) held at Cambridge U. in 1987, the volume covers the evolutionary origins and geographical dispersal of biologically modern human populations (i.e. Homo sapiens sapiens ), presenting the biological, anatomical, and genetic evidence for human origins, and the archaeological evidence for the development of modern behavioral patterns.

Review

"There is little doubt that this is an important book for all paleaoanthropologists and archaeologists--it is international in its scope and broad in its treatment of the exciting issues central to modern thinking in these fields."--Nature
