Description: Lucy: The Beginnings of Humankind by Donald C. Johanson; Maitland Edey Simon & Schuster 1981 When Donald Johanson found a partial skeleton, approximately 3.5 million years old, in the remote Afar region of Ethiopia in November of 1974, he knew he had stumbled onto something unique. Bursting with all the suspense and intrigue of a fast-paced adventure novel, and filled with lively, up-to-the-minute scientific detail and marvelous illustrations in color and black-and-white, this major new book unfolds the extraordinary story of Johanson's discovery of "Lucy" -the oldest, most complete, best-preserved skeleton of any erect-walking human ancestor ever found, and the first new species to be named in more than 15 years; reveals the controversial change Lucy makes in our view of human origins; and provides a vivid, behind-the-scenes account of the entire history of paleoanthropology--and the eccentric, colorful characters who are and were a part of it. Better than Good. Clean with no writing or markings to the text; dust jacket is rubbed but the panels are clean and legible; Absolutely NOT A LIBRARY BOOK! There definitely will be NO underlining, highlighting, and or writing. Look at the PHOTOS that are part of the description.
