Description

A brief and stimulating outline of the prehistory of the whole world and the development of mankind in each part of the globe up to the time of recorded history. It starts at the beginning and shows how the distinctive civilizations of mankind, which now enrich human life, have emerged from a common prehistoric past. It does not set out to describe archaeological data, but rather to outline the story of humanity which archaeologists are now able to re-construct. It follows the vast spread and slow progress of human settlement, the growth of civilization and the beginnings of technology in various parts of the earth; a development so uneven that in some countries Professor Clark's story ends thousands of years ago, while in others we still find prehistoric peoples. 329p + plates, Neat tight student reading copy. a few underinings
