Leakey's authoritative account of how the human species came to be. Drawing on decades of fossil discoveries in East Africa, Leakey chronicles the multi-million-year journey from our earliest hominid ancestors to the emergence of modern Homo sapiens. Written with clarity and conviction, the book argues that cooperation, social bonding, and tool use — rather than aggression — were the defining forces that shaped our species. Illustrated with rich evidence from the fossil record and field research, it remains an essential and compelling read for anyone seeking to understand the deep origins of humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956160704731,"sku":"2026200008687-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/50e457b4-3703-4405-84d6-d98a9649e673.png?v=1783498470","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008687-secondhand-the-making-of-mankind","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
