Sommario/riassunto

The Human Fossil Record, Volume 3, Brain Endocasts: Paleoneurological Evidence presents the paleoneurological evidence for human evolution through a series of easily accessible and coherent descriptions accompanied by original photographs. Each entry provides essential information related to the location, dating, association, and morphology of the endocast. This book is invaluable for its inclusion of an overview of the methodology and modern techniques available for studying brain endocasts, as well as a concise summary on the significance of the evidence to our understanding of human evolution and behavior.
