General Booklist

Here is a list of books that are of general use throughout the course. It is intended as a starting point, and any of the books with similar classmarks in the library will be relevent and of interest so look along the shelves. If anyone finds any really great books in the library, then please let everyone know about them. There are often articles in New Scientist about human evolution and these are also well worth reading. Each lecture will also have its own more specific bibliography.
