For junior/senior courses in Human Evolution and Paleoanthropology in Anthropology departments. This text, the only one of its kind on the market, surveys the development of the field of human evolution from its inception through today. It provides students with a broad contrast enabling them to fully understand the value and role of current paleoanthropological research.

Richard G. Delisle has earned two doctorates-one in philosophy of science from the Université de Montréal and the other in paleoanthropology from the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa-but, at the same time, he likes to get his hands dirty. He has worked on archeological digs in the south of France and paleontological excavations in the western United States.
