For Junior, Senior, and Graduate courses in Human Evolution taught in anthropology and biology departments.This book is the most comprehensive collection of cutting edge articles on human evolution. Designed for use by students in anthropology, paleontology, and evolutionary biology, this edited volume brings together the major ideas and publications on human evolution of the past three decades. The book spans the entire scope of human evolution with particular emphasis on the fossil record, including archaeological studies.
My interest in the evolution of Mankind is mostly of the "Arm-chair Adventurer" kind, though I once thought to make paleontology my career. Most of my collection of books on ancient man are of a popular nature, but once in a while it's fascinating to delve into the math-and-science end of this rapidly-evolving field (no pun intended). Many, many experts in their various fields have contribute to this large volume, and it is a wealth of information, both about the subject of paleoanthropology and about just how much study has gone into such an esoteric field. I read it a bit at a time to keep my brain from hurting!I may never fully understand all of the minutae of the study of Hominins, but it's nice to have The Human Evolution Source Book around to refer to.
