In 1987 a group of California scientists announced they had solved anthropology's greatest mystery: the origin of modern man.Their findings stunned the scientific world. Culling DNA samples from various ethnic groups, these scientists claimed they had pinpointed the time and place of mankind's one common ancestor, a woman who lived in Africa more than 200,000 years ago, This "Eve" was what we think of as contemporary mankind, not like an "ape-man". This story is of how these scientists arrived at their conclusion, which has stirred hot controversy, as one can well imagine. 358 pages. 8vo.1990, HarperCollins.
