At the dawn of mankind

The book helps a modern person understand himself, restoring the history of the origin of our species from the very beginning, from a single common ancestor. It is known that until recently the first steps of mankind were covered with darkness - 5 million years of human evolution and 50,000 years of the prehistoric era remained a mystery to everyone. Only in the last decade, completely new data were discovered by the forces of scientific scientists. This became possible primarily due to the completion of work to determine the sequence of DNA in the human genome. Scientific expert journalist Nicholas Wade shares with readers unique information recorded in the DNA of the human genome, which helps us in the study of our general past. The book will be interesting to all those who are fascinated by anthropology, research in the field of genetics and history
