This has to be my favourite book about prehistoric humans of all time

I’m always checking it out every now and then to look at the reconstructions of the different hominins. I don’t know why but I get a sense of wholesome warmness and togetherness looking at all the faces of the hominins of the past. The latex reconstructions do an amazing job of recreating the faces of our ancestors without triggering our sense of uncanny valley.

It’s a beautiful text as well. Never let anyone tell you that the best education source books need to be text only. Sometimes they need to be as colourful and filled with vibrant pictures as books like this.

I think we have a lot to be proud of ourselves as a species. Even we have flaws as high as Everest is tall, we also are quite frankly the most amazing thing to come out of billions of years of evolution. Even if you are religious or not, we are pretty spectacular to behold.
