Krátky popis
The Dutch bestseller Nominated for Le Prix Nicolas Bouvier'A
masterclass in storytelling, exploring who we are and where we came
from' Danielle Clode 'Gripping and brilliantly told, We Hominids
deftly blends personal experience with a journalist's eye for a
remarkable story' Mark McKennaWHO ARE WE? WHY ARE WE DIFFERENT FROM
ANIMALS? WHAT MAKES US HUMAN?In this charming, thought-provoking
book, one of Holland's greatest non-fiction writers hunts down
answers to humanity's most fundamental questions: Who are we? What
makes us different from animals? With an ancient skull as his
starting point, he travels the globe, tracing the search for the
first human being: the missing link between humans and apes.
Westerman introduces us to the world of skull hunters - leading
experts in our fossil ancestry - whose lives are just as
fascinating as those of their primeval discoveries. He astutely
reconsiders the work of illustrious paleoanthropologists in the
light of new DNA technology, postcolonialism, and the rise of women
in this male-dominated field.Westerman discovers a plethora of
origin hypotheses and shows how any theory of who we are and where
we come from is coloured by the zeitgeist. We, Hominids is a
compelling mixture of reportage, travelogue and essay - reminiscent
of Bruce Chatwin or Ryszard Kapuscinski - written by a brilliant
storyteller and thinker.
