Travel back in time almost eight million years to explore the roots of the human family tree.

Written and authenticated by a team of experts and with a foreword by Professor Alice Roberts, Evolution brings us face to face with our ancestors. Interweaving latest discoveries, maps, and incredible illustrations, it tells the story of our origins and helps us better understand our species, from tree-dwelling primates to modern humans.

Renowned Dutch paleoartists the Kennis brothers bring our ancestors to life with their beautiful, accurate reconstructions that visually trace each step in our evolutionary history. Combined with clear prose, this comprehensive yet accessible book provides a rich history of each stage of human evolution, from human anatomy and behaviour to the environment we live in.

Alice Roberts is an anatomist and biological anthropologist, author and broadcaster. She's interested in the evolution, structure and function of humans, and our place in the wider environment. She passionately believes that universities are about generating and spreading knowledge to the widest possible audience, and she has been Professor of Public Engagement in Science at the University of Birmingham since 2012. Alice has presented a wide range of science and archaeology programmes on television. Her television debut came as a human bone expert on Channel 4's Time Team, in 2001. After presenting Coast on BBC2, she went on to write and present a range of BBC series, including The Incredible Human Journey, Origins of Us, Prehistoric Autopsy and Digging for Britain. Alice has written several popular science books, including The Incredible Human Journey, The Incredible Unlikeliness of Being, and Ancestors- A Prehistory of Britain in Seven Burials.
