About the Author:

Elaine Morgan's first book, The Descent of Woman (1972), was an international bestseller in nine languages. Best known as an award-winning writer for television, she is also the author of The Aquatic Ape (1982).
Review:
"An exceptionally well-written book. Morgan seems to have succeeded where the professionals have failed. She has made a genuine contribution to evolutionary history...and she has presented it in a form which is accessible to the interested lay reader."--British Medical Journal

"An engaging promotion of the hypothesis that a crucial period in human evolution was spent in an aquatic environment....An entertaining and coherent overview of the arguments favoring the "aquatic ape" theory."--Dr. Kimberly Tanner, The Bloomsbury Review

"An engaging promotion of the hypothesis that a crucial period in human evolution was spend in an aquatic environment. An entertaining and coherent overview of the arguments favoring the 'aquatic ape' theory."--Kimberly Tanner, Ph.D., The Bloomsbury Review
