Profusely illustrated with 240 drawings, photos, and maps of which 100 are in full color. "Origins: Close to three million years ago on a campsite near the shore of Kenya's spectacular Lake Turkana, a primitive human picked up a water-smoothed stone, and with a few skillful strikes transformed it into an implement. What was once an accident of nature was now a piece of deliberate technology, to be used to fashion a stick for digging up roots, or to slice flesh off a dead animal. Soon discarded by its maker, the stone tool still exists, an unbreakable link with our ancestors; together with many others, that tool is preserve in the National Museums of Kenya in Nairobi. It is a heart-quickening thought that we share the same genetic heritage with the hands that shaped the tool. There is an inescapable and persistent element of excitement in the search for the origins of humanity. It affects everyone, professionals and non-professionals alike, because there appears to be a universal curiosity about our past, about how a thinking, feeling, cultural being emerged from a primitive ape-like stock. What evolutionary circumstances molded that ancient ape into a tall, upright, highly intelligent creature who, through technology and determination, has come to dominate the world? This is the question answered by Origins, a challenging and pioneering book that pieces together the exciting story of mankind's long past and the conditions necessary for our successful future." - from the rear outer jacket. "Drawing on the legacy of knowledge gathered by his parents, Louis and Mary Leakey, at Olduvai Gorge, Richard Leakey's excavations at Lake Turkana in northern Kenya suggest that perhaps three or even more species of primitive hominids existed simultaneously in the same geographic region millions of years ago. Why "our" line - Homo - survived while others vanished is the central question of this pioneering and exciting study of human evolution. Equally important is what this new information tells us about humankind's future as well as our early history. Origins disputes popular writers who argue that human conflict has always existed, because, they say, aggression is deeply rooted in our genes. Such a view has little to do with scientific facts, and Richard Leakey and Roger Lewin show that the key to the transformation of an ape-like creature into a human being was the ability to share in a complex social context. This quality of cooperation demonstrated by early man's long history of peaceful hunting and gathering - not unbridled human aggression - is the basic feature of humanity. Even before members of the Homo lineage began moving to Asia and Europe, human evolution had accelerated in Africa. Bigger brains, rounder craniums, shorter faces, and more prominent ridges about the eyes became features of Homo Erectus as our species left far behind the ancestral forest-dwelling ape and became a fully upright, walking hominid; social organization became more sophisticated too. This primitive human's ability to carry things led to the creation of peaceful groups of hunters and gatherers, which were to last for more than three million years. This new form of subsistence economy demanded a degree of social cohesion and cooperation unknown to our primate cousins. Origins also explains how walking erect was accompanied by rapid brain development and man's relative control of his environment; it describes, with numerous examples from field research, the gaps in the fossil record as they relate to our picture of early man, and how new discoveries may revise further the puzzle of our biological and cultural evolution. It draws also on the ongoing field studies of apes conducted by Jane Goodall and others." - from inner front and rear jacket flaps.
