Bones Of Contention
by Marvin L. Lubenow
This is the most complete and accurate critique of the fossils of the so-called 'ape men.' The myth of human evolution is completely demolished. The last chapter, repudiating the compromising views of many modern evangelicals on this subject, is illuminating. Lubenow has made an invaluable contribution to scientific biblical creationism.

Lowly Origin
by Jonathan Kingdon

The First Human
by Ann Gibbons
An in-depth account of humankind's search for the missing link between humans and apes journeys into the competitive world of fossil hunting and the lives of ambitious, competing scientists determined to pinpoint the dawn of humankind and uncover the mysteries of human evolution.

The Metaphysics Of Apes
by Raymond H. A. Corbey

From Lucy to Language
by Donald Johanson
In 1974 in a remote region of Ethiopia, Donald Johanson, then one of America's most promising young paleoanthropologists, discovered "Lucy", the oldest, best preserved skeleton of any erect-walking human ever found. This discovery prompted a complete reevaluation of previous evidence for human origins. From Lucy to Language is an encounter with the evidence. Early human fossils are hunted, discovered, identified, excavated, collected, preserved, labeled, cleaned, reconstructed, drawn, fondled, photographed, cast, compared, measured, revered, pondered, published, and argued over endlessly. Fossils like Lucy have become a talisman of sorts, promising to reveal the deepest secrets of our existence. In Part II the authors profile over fifty of the most significant early human fossils ever found. Each specimen is displayed in color and at actual size, most of them in multiple views. With them the authors present the cultural accoutrements associated with the fossils: stone tools which evidence increasing sophistication over time, the earliest stone, clay, and ivory art objects, and the culminating achievement of the dawn of human consciousness - the magnificent rock and cave paintings of Europe, Africa, Australia, and the Americas.
