This volume assembles a diverse group of researchers to analyze the anthropological and biological disagreements regarding the origins of humans. The difficulties of various positions are pointed out, and an attempt at resolution is made by a rigorous definition of Homo sapiens sapiens. The balanced treatment will prove valuable for all researchers and students concerned with this controversial subject.
