In this well-illustrated sequel to Breathing Life Into Fossils, Schick and Toth (both with the Stone Age Institute & Indiana U.) introduce recent approaches to the study of stone artifacts for elucidating the human thought and adaptive behavior underlying technological evolution. International contributors to 13 chapters present paleoanthropological views and data on topics including how changes in raw material transport reflect landscape changes, biochronology for dating sites in North Africa, and experimental acquisition of Oldawan lithic knapping skill in modern humans. The volume is based on the 2006 "Cutting Edge" conference at the editors' Institute. Not indexed. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co.
