The book provides readers with an understanding of the exhibition of humans and the cultures they established, from the first traces of humanity to the creation of early literate societies."--BOOK JACKET. "The author examines how Homo sapiens emerged as the sole-surviving human species and developed into modern humans. He provides a global account of prehistoric life and the roots of modern societies and hereditary ranking, the origins of language, the importance of agriculture, the evolution of tool-making, the development of religion, and the beginnings of war."--BOOK JACKET.
