About This Book

An introductory survey of human nature and civilization that examines human antiquity, anatomical and behavioral comparisons with other animals, and the variation and classification of human populations. It traces origins and development of language and writing, and explains material culture from stone tools through metalwork, agricultural practices, and technologies of transport and manufacture. Chapters discuss social institutions, belief, and warfare, illustrating how cultural forms evolve from simpler to more complex devices and systems.
