Book Description
"George Frison is an icon in American archeology. In Survival by Hunting, he describes personal experiences leading to the insights and perspectives that set him apart from the majority of his colleagues, who know of large game hunting only secondhand."—Michael B. Collins, Texas Archeological Research Laboratory, the University of Texas at Austin “This small book is a record of achievement and dedication to learning rarely seen in the profession of archaeology. It is the inspirational product of a person who fully understands the critical importance of prior knowledge about the behavior of prey to inferring the activities of ancient hunter-gatherers. Students of past hunter-gatherers need to read this book.”—Lewis R. Binford, author of In Pursuit of the Past
Land of Lost Monsters

Book Description
Homo sapiens began to explore the world beyond Africa only 100,000 years ago. These people were not primitive cavemen, but as intelligent as ourselves. Thousands of years before Cook or Columbus, they pioneered a route from Africa through Eurasia to Australia, northern Europe, the Americas, and ultimately the shores of remote islands like New Zealand. What our ancestors found was not the planet that we know today, but instead, a prehistoric world ruled by giant animals, 'monsters' that had risen from the ashes of the dinosaurs.

Beast and Man
Author: Mary MidgleyPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134438451

Pages : 314
Book Description
Philosophers have traditionally concentrated on the qualities that make human beings different from other species. In Beast and Man Mary Midgley, one of our foremost intellectuals, stresses continuities. What makes people tick? Largely, she asserts, the same things as animals. She tells us humans are rather more like other animals than we previously allowed ourselves to believe, and reminds us just how primitive we are in comparison to the sophistication of many animals. A veritable classic for our age, Beast and Man has helped change the way we think about ourselves and the world in which we live.
