| Zusammenfassung: | "With an ancient skull as his starting point, he travels the globe, tracing the search for the first human being: the missing link between humans and apes. Westerman introduces us to the world of skull hunters -- leading experts in our fossil ancestry -- whose lives are just as fascinating as those of their primeval discoveries. He astutely reconsiders the work of illustrious paleoanthropologists in the light of new DNA technology, postcolonialism, and the rise of women in this male-dominated field. Westerman discovers a plethora of origin hypotheses and shows how any theory of who we are and where we come from is colored by the zeitgeist. We, Hominids is a compelling mixture of reportage, travelogue and essay, written by a brilliant storyteller and thinker."--Dust jacket |
