 | Human Evolution by Robert Gardner
In Human Evolution, well-known science writer Robert Gardner skillfully guides the young-adult reader along the fossil trail that leads to Homo sapiens. He begins with the first major fossil discovery of Homo neanderthalensis in Europe and concludes with the most recent finds in Africa. Gardner takes care to note where each new set of bones falls on the family tree that leads from apes to modern humans. As the author discusses the fossil record, he also introduces the people who have worked to solve this puzzle -- scientists such as Charles Darwin and Mary Leaky. Details on language and culture, and their importance in the evolution of our species are also described. AUTHOR: Robert Gardner
