Conceptual Issues in Modern Human Origins ResearchGeoffrey A. Clark, Catherine M. Willermet Transaction Publishers - Всего страниц: 508 While those who study human origns now agree that the evolution of the modern human form extends back much further in time than originally thought, they disagree sharply as to how to interpret the substantive data. The purpose of this volume is to examine those conceptual differences and to explore the reasons why a consensus might never be possible. |
