The book Human Evolution and its Uniqueness provides an invaluable and refreshing approach to human evolution, redefining in depth the nature and role of man in the contemporary world which is changing at an incredibly fast pace. Man is gifted with a large brain and conceptual thought by virtue of which he has been able to evolve new skills and techniques. By the end of twentieth century he has not only mastered thermonuclear weapons and their delivery systems by rockets and satellites but also acquired power to influence the human evolution as well as the other species of living organisms,. Whether man will use these powers as well as the flora and fauna of this world for the benefit of mankind or for its destruction depends largely on the cultivation of his noble passions and controlling of his base passions. For that a proper social environment where equity and justice, love and charity prevails should be developed. This responsibility falls on the generation which is now in their twenties and thirties. Besides studying the origin of life and uniqueness of human evolution in details, the present book studies the cosmic evolution, vertebrate evolution, and primate evolution. In addition, the book contains information about various fossils: Australopithecus, Homo Habilis, Neandertals and Cro-Magnons. The book is a complete treatise on human evolution. It is written in a lucid and easily comprehensible style, and would be useful for students and researchers in discipline such as anthropology, geography and sociology. The general readers will also find it interesting and useful.
