Evolution's Bite

More about the book

This impressive book serves as a window into human history through the lens of teeth and diet. Ungar's seamless narrative brings bits of bone and teeth to life, and does so against a vivid backdrop in which paleoanthropologists arrive at their conclusions about why, how, and what we eat. This book is a pleasure to read - Ungar has that rare gift of engaging us through personal insight while simultaneously explaining complex scientific principles. - Joanna E.
