Concise and filled with engaging images, the book makes evolution, primatology, and human variation appealing to todays learners.\nThe book introduces readers to issues surrounding the theory of evolution, sheds light on questions about what evolution is or isnt, and discusses how we know what we think we do about it.\nReaders will learn about early hominins, the Australopithecines, and the genus Homo. The book also addresses population history and genetics, adaptation and acclimatization, and anatomically modern humans. It concludes with the big question--where will we go from here?\nEach chapter is a balance of text, exercises, graphs, and visuals. The exercise worksheets support independent learning, and answers are provided to allow for self-assessment.\nIntroduction to Human Evolution is an excellent choice for courses in anthropology and biology. It is accessible to non-majors, but can also be used in introductory courses for science majors.\nGillian Crane-Kramer earned her Ph.D. in archeology\/biological anthropology from the University of Calgary, Canada.
