Description:
A unique reframing of human history as shaped by our physical abilities and limitations - by the Sunday Times-bestselling author of Origins



Being Human is history made flesh. It will change the way you see the world.




'Illuminating'
TIM MARSHALL

'Refreshing' THOMAS HALLIDAY

'Fascinating' GUARDIAN




We're a wonder of evolution, capable of incredible feats. But we're also deeply flawed. Our bodies and minds often break, fail, and hinder us. To be human is to live with this extraordinary contradiction. So, to understand the course humanity has taken - from prehistoric times through the age of empire and into the modern era - we must understand who, and what, we are.




Lewis Dartnell takes us on a mind-expanding journey across time to show how our biology has determined history. From the epidemic that brought Europe's peasants freedom, to the health deficiency which gave rise to the world's largest criminal organisation, to the cognitive biases that led to military catastrophes in Crimea and Iraq, we see how our unique nature shaped our relationships, economies and societies - and, importantly, how it continues to impact human progress today.

So close!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy
This dress exceeded my expectations, but the deal breaker for me is no pockets! I can't believe I missed that. The fabric is impressive for polyester. It seems relatively breathable, and it's a very nice mid weight that flows and drapes well. It is smooth and conceals lumps and bumps. The buttons are well made, and the placket does not gap. I ordered the navy blue and it's exactly as expected. Size XXL is exactly right for me at 48/40/50 and 5'6". It hits about 4" below my knee. I would prefer shorter at the knee for easier to wear as a duster. I wish it had pockets!

Classic dress at a great price
Size: Medium, Color: Black Ivory Geometric
I was shocked, in the best way when I received this dress as the material is thick and heavy. I was looking for a dress that I could take on business trips that was comfortable, stylish and didn't wrinkle. This dress checked all the boxes. It's a classic style that will never go out of style.

Runs smaller than my regular size.
Size: Large, Color: Hot Pink Leafy Floral Ditsy
Medium weight fabric and decent quality. Tight fit across bust and under arms and also waist. I am not a big busted woman although I am not so many inches different from bust to waist (it gapped at waist upon sitting. I had to exchange it for a bigger size. So my experience leads me to belive that this manufacturer sizes smaller than what I would expect from expensive clothing. For the price is a good choice if you remember to go at least one size up from your regular size.
