Anitquity of Man Artifactual, Fossil and Gene Records Explored

Palaeoanthropology and archaeology are fascinating, vibrant, and multi-disciplinary areas of research encompassing everything from isotopic laboratory work to down-and-dirty hands-on excavation. The discipline has grown tremendously since the time of Darwin and continues to yield new important revelations with each passing year. Recently a new variant of creationism has arisen to challenge evolution: Hindu creationism, as advanced by its most prominent proponents Michael Cremo and Richard Thompson. The Antiquity of Man explores the basic tenets that run through all fundamentalist writings. It is the only published work to provide an in-depth critique of Cremo and Thompson's work, and to examine creationism from the perspective of palaeoanthropology and archaeology: the application of genetics, our relationship with archaic hominins and chimpanzees, and the origins of modern human behavior.Brass, Michael is the author of 'Anitquity of Man Artifactual, Fossil and Gene Records Explored' with ISBN 9781591293859 and ISBN 1591293855.
