About this product
Product Information
This is a book about Neanderthals and birds-the twin passions of the author. Were Neanderthals really the brutes that they have been made out to be, too slow to catch birds, lacking the skills and imagination of the modern humans they lived beside in Europe? Far from it, says Clive Finlayson. Combining a deep understanding of the natural history of the world of the Neanderthals with exciting discoveries from the caves they occupied, he urges us to radically change our view of these early humans, whose genes still linger in most people today.

Reviews
"In this short, engaging book, Finlayson recounts his personal journey to find out about Neanderthals. In doing so, he effectively rattles the bars of the protective cage around our species uniqueness." -- Clive Gamble, Archäologische Informationen, "In this short, engaging book, Finlayson recounts his personal journey to find out about Neanderthals. In doing so, he effectively rattles the bars of the protective cage around our species uniqueness." -- Clive Gamble, Arch"aologische Informationen, This is an anecdotal and quirky book, an act of storytelling in effect, but nonetheless persuasive for that ... The Smart Neanderthal is a touching, slightly eccentric contribution to an evolving story, finding, as all do in this field, tremendous significance in still scant evidence - but it is wonderfully suggestive and engaging., "In this short, engaging book, Finlayson recounts his personal journey to find out about Neanderthals. In doing so, he effectively rattles the bars of the protective cage around our species uniqueness." -- Clive Gamble, Arch¨aologische Informationen
