Discussion meeting issue ‘Major transitions in human evolution’
organized and edited by Robert A. Foley, Lawrence Martin, Marta
Mirazón Lahr and Chris Stringer
There is a long history for human 'origins', but not only are such
origins elusive, they are also an illusion, as in evolution new
features arise as transformations from existing ones. The rich human
palaeoanthropological record shows an unexpectedly complex pattern in
the tempo and mode of human evolution.
This theme issue focuses on key evolutionary transitions to understand
the interaction of biology, behaviour, culture and environment. This
issue is dedicated to Richard Leakey, whose critical discoveries have
provided evidence for many of the key phases, and who has inspired
much of the work discussed here. http://rstb.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/371/1698 https://theconversation.com/no-giant-leap-for-mankind-why-weve-been-looking-at-human-evolution-in-the-wrong-way-60935
