Rated by buyers -
I bought this book for a lower-division anthropology class, and found it one of the few books used for college that i actually enjoyed reading. The writing is clear and straightforward, and the book has many maps, pictures, tables, and diagrams for understanding major points and for visual stimulation. Besides the evolution of modern humans from primate ancestors, the book also provides an introduction to genetics, primate behavior, important archaeological finds, human variation and adaptations, and more. I'm not an anthropologist so I can't attest to the accuracy of the book, but as a biology student I enjoyed it thoroughly and recommend it. Minus one star because for the price it should go into a bit more detail.
