About This Item
Lanham, MD: University Press of America, 2000. hardcover. Book VG+: mild shelf wear to boards and spine, text clean, binding tight.. 8vo 372pp. from Foreword: "This book is a cornucopia of facts--facts about prehistoric painting, facts about prehistoric emotions, facts about the transition of both sort of facts throughout human history. At the turn of a millennium, it is right that we human beings should be preoccupied with our past, and this book takes us on an Odyssey of all of this, including some aspects that we repress--human sacrifice, for example. [. . .] This is hardly news, but the author of this book presents us with a particular set of facts which leads him to a particular theory for why this should be so. This, in a nutshell, is that the human brain, and the right hemisphere in particular, has evolved over this period, and led to the changes he describes." #02415.
