People are curious about human evolution and the scientific study of our origins.
A book is an effective and enjoyable means of communicating to fellow scientists and the lay public alike. This book was an opportunity to combine my responsibilities as a researcher and an educator into one work. After watching Louis Leakey on the television, walking down the side of Olduvai Gorge past layer after layer of our past, I was hooked. My current theories have grown from a lifetime interest, which took new directions once I started reading about chaos theory. I am still formulating new theories, and will continue to do so.
