Product Description

Online Review
A cross between the novel Jurassic Park and the movie Quest for Fire, Almost Adam is a speculative tale about the survival of the Australopithecus (an early human ancestor living two million years ago) in a remote part of Kenya. The book is often compared to John Darnton's Neanderthal, but it's actually much better. The American Anthropological Association recently gave Almost Adam a surprisingly positive review on the pages of its newsletter--a good endorsement coming from a crowd that might be tough to please. The science is solid and the story is good, if a bit long. With this novel, Petru Popescu offers a pleasant way to learn about the past.
