It exhibits with laughter and drama that lots of of our important faculties--self awareness, engineering, family connections, submission to power, hate for all those only a little not the same as ourselves, cause, and integrity--are grounded in the deep past, and lit by our kinship with other creatures. Amazing in its range, amazing in its observations, and a truly engaging study, SHADOWS OF FORGOTTEN ANCESTORS is just a success of well-known technology.
