Overview

How can we learn about the evolution of our own species and trace the origins of human behaviour in the distant past? This volume explores the diverse ways in which the evolution of human behaviour can be investigated and confronts the most challenging aspects of the subject. It provides new insights into the process of human innovation and the growth of human intelligence and points the way forward in one of the most swiftly expanding areas of research for modern evolutionary biology and anthropology.
