About the Book

Evolution is no longer a theory. It is the standard model that is recognised on how all life has diversified or changed over the years. Originating from a common ancestor, diversifying into different lineages, then different species and advancing into the modern life we see all over the world today. Through natural selection, favouring any genetic changes that benefit future generations for changing environments. Distinctly Human, An Evolutionary Journey, is the journey from our pre-primate ancestry, through to pre-human ancestry along with other lineages that have come before us. Lineages that have thrived, then died out due to climatic and environmental changes that helped shape the Human of today. This is finally us, physically the result of three million years of evolutionary change since the first true human species, Australopithecus afarensis (Lucy). Over three hundred thousand generations and eight million years since the first primate ancestor. We are now fully human. Distinctly Human, An Evolutionary Journey follows that journey. The journey that made us, Distinctly Human.
About the Author: Bruce Alpine is a science writer based out of the Kapiti Coast in New Zealand. Renowned for his ability to explain complex and technical issues in a way that is both easy to understand and fun to read, Bruce has gained a small but devoted audience since he published his first book, A History Of Life On Earth. Born in Wellington, New Zealand in 1958, Bruce was the only son of a former college instructor. His mother was born in Britain and immigrated to New Zealand when she was 21. She encouraged Bruce and his three sisters to read often and study hard in school, and when it became clear that Bruce had an affinity for science, she encouraged that too. Bruce's key interests revolve around the Earth and the life that inhabits it: how it sprang up, how it's come to be the way it is, how it functions now, etc. In addition to his work as a writer, Bruce is employed in the health support industry. He has two children, one son and one daughter, both of whom are grown up.
