We evolved to eat berries rather than bagels, to live in mud huts rather than apartments, to sprint barefoot rather than play football -or did we? Are our bodies and brains truly at odds with modern life?

From debunking the caveman diet to unravelling gender stereotypes, Zuk delivers an engrossing analysis of widespread paleofantasies and the scientific evidence that undermines them.
