In the early 80s Gribbin and Cherfas published THE MONKEY PUZZLE- a book that challenged the accepted theory that homo sapiens were descended from apes. The authors argued that we are 100% ape - not a separate species, but a sibling species to chimps and gorillas, more closely related than the horse is to the zebra. Dismissed at the time as 'armchair theorists', recent research has vindicated Gribbin and Cherfas. THE FIRST CHIMPANZEE is a substantially revised edition of the earlier book, bringing to light these developments.We now know that human beings and apes were descended from a common 'manlike ancestor', and that chimps and gorillas went back to the trees AFTER our ancestors had gone a long way towards becoming human.

Zustand: As New. : En 'The First Chimpanzee: In Search of Human Origins', John Gribbin y Jeremy Cherfas exploran la evolución humana y nuestra relación con los primates. El libro examina cómo los humanos comparten una gran parte de su ADN con chimpancés y gorilas, desafiando la visión tradicional de la descendencia de los simios. Los autores plantean preguntas sobre por qué los simios regresaron a los árboles mientras los humanos evolucionaron, y si una pequeña diferencia en el ADN puede explicar la civilización humana. Esta edición revisada actualiza la investigación original con nuevos descubrimientos. EAN: 9780140294811 Tipo: Libros Categoría: Ciencia Ficción Título: The First Chimpanzee Autor: John Gribbin| Jeremy Cherfas Editorial: Penguin Books Ltd Idioma: en Páginas: 336 Formato: tapa blanda.
