description: This revision of "Physical Anthropology" combines information on discoveries impacting the on-going controversy over the origin of modern humans with a revamped design. The authors have included discussions on the "mitroshondrial eve" hypothesis and the discovery of a new Georgian (formerly Soviet Union) "homo erectus". New features include four-colour photo essays, a slightly larger trimsize to accommodate a more open design and chapter outlines. The fifth edition includes eighteen new boxes and a new appendix, "An introduction to skeletal anatomy and the anatomy of the brain".
