Reviews

"...this mix of authors augments the meticulous descriptive morphological observations with morphometric data about variability within A. afarensis that will be a mine of information for mant scholars in years to come." -- Journal of Anthropological Research
"The illustrations are a fitting complement to the scholarship. The photographs are uniformly excellent, as are the line drawings. Illustrations are used imaginatively and effectively; the figure that depicts the hypothetical morphocline in glenoid morphology really is an example of a good picture being worth a thousand words. I can only imagine how much work went into this volume. We should be grateful that the authors were willing to make the effort." --
