In this book, Ian Tattersall examines the scientific evidence of Neanderthal man, describing the way he lived and exploring how and why he may have become extinct. The author marshals the best available evidence to unravel the mysteries of the Neanderthals: who they were, how they lived, how they succeeded for so long, and what happened to them. This revised edition is fully updated to include information on Tattersall’s recent survey of all known Neanderthal fossils, cutting-edge work with Neanderthal DNA, and new discoveries in Spain.
Ian Tattersall is a British-American paleoanthropologist and a curator emeritus with the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, New York. In addition to human evolution, Tattersall has worked extensively with lemurs. Tattersall is currently working with the Templeton Foundation.
