"I lettori di ossa" racconta lo scontro tra scienza e politica nel dibattito sulla preistoria australiana e di altri Paesi dove la presenza dei popoli indigeni rende profondamente politica l interpretazione del passato. Gli scienziati stanno ricostruendo la preistoria con l uso di tecnologie sempre pi avanzate mentre i popoli indigeni ne rivendicano la propriet esclusiva. Questo rende sempre pi difficile lo studio delle ossa e dei reperti che gli aborigeni attribuiscono ai loro antenati ancestrali.

Our understanding of human origins has been revolutionized by new discoveries in the past two decades. In this book, three leading paleoanthropologists and physical scientists illuminate, in friendly, accessible language, the amazing findings behind the latest theories. They describe new scientific and technical tools for dating, DNA analysis, remote survey, and paleoenvironmental assessment that enabled recent breakthroughs in research. They also explain the early development of the modern human cortex, the evolution of symbolic language and complex tools, and our strange cousins from Flores...
