Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This VSI to prehistory will introduce the reader to four and a half million years of human existence. Many of the familiar aspects of modern life are no more than a century or two old, yet our deep social structures and skills were in large measure developed by small bands of our prehistoric ancestors many millennia ago. Chris Gosden invites us to think seriously about who we are by considering who we have been. The idea of prehistory owes its origins to Darwin - suddenly any description of human life on Earth had to take account of a much longer timespan than ever before. What new views of ourselves has this new timespan opened up? Chris Gosden's fascinating new book asks: What relationships did our distant ancestors have with the natural world, with each other, and with the objects and values they created? And as humanity hurtles into a future of virtual interraction and genetic manipulation, what can the darkest recesses of our past teach us about our future?

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A champion jump jockey who finished second in a Grand National without stirrups; who broke his back yet overcame paralysis, not just to walk again but to ride in a race; who became a catalyst for the Injured Jockeys Fund.'When people suffered that kind of injury in the 1950s and 60s, the approach was, 'you've broken your back, you'll never walk again'. Now you've got gyms and trainers and physios to get you motivated. Tim got himself motivated. He did things and helped himself to a degree that was unknown then. He defied all the odds and prognoses.' Elain Mellor.'Tim will always be remembered as the man who refused to give in; who never knew when he was beaten; who was an inspiration to anyone in pain or adversity.' Bob Williams.¿'He was a hero. He was a proper man.' Sir Mark Prescott.'They say you should never meet your heroes but I met Tim Brookshaw on my very first day as a jump jockey and ever after he only grew in my estimation . Chris Pitt has done more than Tim's memory and the racing world a favour for this is a book that needed to be written.'Brough Scott.
