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.
