     I should add to my last note that a good, if slightly
contentious, review of recent developments in our understanding
of human evolution is contained in the book "Lucy" by Johanson
(Sp?) and someone else (who I think was a ghost writer).
     The book predates the flood of information about the
biochemical similarities between closely related species and
so is a little weak on our relationship to the great apes, but
discusses the fossil record very nicely.
