Synopsis

If all of geologic time were equal to one calender year the presence of man on earth would account for one-half hour and man's recorded history for only one and one-half minutes. This book attempts to show what was happening to man during his vast period of unwritten history . G.H.R. Von Koenigswald was the original discoverer of some of man's earliest-Kwon fossil remains. In his book all the important fossil evidence of prehistoric man is presented and evaluated as we pursue the clues leading to man's origin. Applying the concept of evolution to help sole the puzzle the author pieces together the rare fossil fragments that untie prehistoric man to modern man. About the author: G.H.R. von Koengswald is professor of paleontology and stratigraphic at the State University of Utrecht, The Netherlands. He is the discoverer of new finds of pithecanthropus and allied primitive forms of man. /Ann Arbor Science Paperbacks /The best series I have encountered of short, readable , well- illustrated books the basic facts of science".../BEST VALUE ON THIS EXCELLENT COPY OF A TIMELESS CLASSIC BY A MASTER IN THE FIELD TIGHT BINDING/CLEAN BRIGHT PAGES/ MINOR SHELF WARE TO THE JACKET/NO CREASE IN THE SPINE/FAST SHIPPING ALL AROUND THE GLOBE/OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE/
