The Link - Uncovering Our Earliest Ancestor by Colin Tudge, Josh Young
When you think of uncovering our early ancestors, the first thing that comes to mind is a team of scientists with pick axes, shovels and brushes - on their hands and knees in the hot dusty desert, gently sweeping away the last crumbs of ash and yelling "Eureka!"
What you do not think of is a scientist opening a dusty drawer in a museum, looking at an old skeleton and going...hmmmm...
But this is exactly how Ida was found.
This nonfiction book reads like a mystery novel written by Dan Brown..it twists, turns, and Eureka - the forty-seven
million year old primate that is verified as our great great great great great great great great great great.....and so on grandmother, was so complete that you can see
the contents of her stomach. This is not sci fi folks - it is science at it's best.
