What makes us human?
How did we develop language, thought and culture?
Why did we survive, and other human species fail?
The past 12,000 years represent the only time in the sweep of human history when
there has been only one human species. How did this extraordinary proliferation
of species come about - and then go extinct? And why did we emerge such
intellectual giants? The tale of our origins has inevitably been told through
the 'stones and bones' of the archaeological record, yet Robin Dunbar shows it
was our social and cognitive changes rather than our physical development which
truly made us distinct from other species.
