Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: Very Good. Reprint. In 1913 an amateur fossil hunter and antiquarian names Charles Dawson found in a gravel pit in England parts of a skull of an entirely new species of pre-human. The discovery, soon know as Piltdown Man, caused headlines worldwide trumpeting the claim the the evolutionary "missing link" between ape and man had been found. Controversy quickly arose, with many scientists charging that the jaw and cranium were not related and must have come from two different creatures, an ancient man and an ancient ape. But the believers prevailed and for forty years Piltdown Man held his place - though a troubled place - in the fast-developing evolutionary scheme. In this book, the author tells the complete story of the astonishing hoax, and convincingly exposes the true culprit. A final chapter explains in detail how the entire affair was managed, offering a precise description of the planting and discovery of each of the fraudulent specimens. Filled with vivid portraits of Edwardian personalities, based strictly on documentary evidence, Unravelling Piltdown is a thoroughly absorbing detective story in which one of history's greatest frauds is finally solved. Illustrated. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
