On 21 November 1953, one of the most fascinating puzzles in science was finally solved. Three scientists - including the author of this book, Joseph Weiner - described their investigations into the important fossilized human remains found at Piltdown in Sussex in the early 1900s. Their conclusion was stunning: the remains, and the accompanying materials that supposedly verified them as ancient fossils, had been faked.

Soft Cover. Zustand: Good. Dover Edition. Ex-library. 214 pages. From the back cover: ".In 1953 a team of British Museum and Oxford University investigators stunned the scientific world. Eoathropus dawsoni, Charles Dawson's famous manape, was just that--a modern human cranium and the jaw of an orangutan, chemically created and chiseled in the crudest manner. The Piltdown Forgery (1955) is the first and indispensable statement of the case, the classic analysis of the greatest scientific fraud of the century.". Historical Fraud--Evolution.
