Together they draw on a broad spectrum of disciplines, from anthropology, medicine, and neuroscience, to philosophy, psychology and religion, to ask what makes us distinctively human. Is it our cognitive abilities, our use of tools, our story-telling, our beliefs, our curiosity, our ability to cook, or our culture?Reviews  Reader's Index Send us your favorite quotes or passages from this book.
