Comments on "Cro-Magnon - How the Ice Age Gave Birth to the First Modern Humans" by Brian Fagan
This very prolific anthropologist and author, he has written 23 other books besides this one, provides documentation that the scientific revoultion of the late 20th and early 21st centuries also occurred in paleoanthropology.
The author's thorough acquaintance with and careful explanations of the new revolution producing sciences of paleoclimatology and molecular biology together with his gifted persuasive imagination create descriptions of something like the real histories of Neanderthal people, who were human, but not surviving today or anatomically modern, and Cro-Magnon people, modern and very much surviving.
These excellent, vivid and persuasive descriptions, along with those of even earlier people, cover tens and hundreds of thousands of years.
