Gripping and brilliantly told, We Hominids deftly blends personal experience with a journalist's eye for a remarkable story
A masterclass in storytelling, exploring who we are and where we came from
Part travelogue, part science, Frank Westerman unearths a brilliantly original story that has been millions of years in the making: what does it mean to be human? Quite wonderful
A must read. So good, we wouldn't want to deprive our readers of it. A book that makes us abandon our convictions
Westerman's acute sense of humour enlivens the narrative throughout
