Book Overview

This humorous account of human evolution, from the beginnings of bipedalism through the Upper Paleolithic, is set in the context of a cookbook, with recipes and cartoons to match the unfolding stories. Each chapter discusses a particular milestone or event in human development, and a dash of prehistory, a sprinkling of recipes, and a generous helping of humor painlessly lighten the professorial instruction.

Ben dis donc mon gars, Ca c'est du bouquin!

J'en ai lu des livres sur les hommes prehistoriques, croyez-moi, des gros avec beaucoup de mots ou encore des petits avec des titres qui font peur, mais rien de tel que celui-ci...D'abord, on se laisse surprendre par l'humour delicieux et instruit du texte qui accompagne les recettes pour se laisser delicieusement entrainer dans un voyage chrono-gastronomique a travers les ages. Une feerie pour les papilles, un regal pour l'intellect! Une combinaison parfaite de savoureuses lecons de prehistoire a la creme de plaisir!En un mot, achetez ce livre et laissez vous prendre par le charme sulfureux et delicat de ce petit chef-d'oeuvre d'humour savant...

Masterpiece!

Great work by two cutting edge experts in their respective fields - archaeology and culinary arts. Just looking at the cover makes me salivate and crave for great food... Definitely for those not wanting to lose weight, though. If you want to lose weight, do the tropics thing.

superhuman evolution cookbook!!

Wow! This book is a double-whammy success! Not only is the running dialogue on our current knowledge of human evolution and prehistoric material culture right on spot and highly entertaining (it could easily serve as an outline for a university course on the subject), this book is also chalk-a-block full of yummy recipes! I hope there is a sequel in the works!

Wonderful - A Truly Groundbreaking Book

The recipes are delicious and the writing hilarious. What wit ! Dibble is a genius and Williamson's command of the culinary is second to none. If there is only one cookbook with a caveman theme that you buy this year, make it this one. Great gift idea !

The best book ever

Ce n'est pas très bien, ce bouquin. Les histoires sont une peu stupides et les recettes ne sont que - comment dit-on? -- mangeable, quoi. A mon avis, ce serait mieux de jeter ce livre et d'acheter un Mac-Do. (Translation: "This is the best book ever. The text is highly entertaining and informative, and the recipes are delicious - better than anything you could get at even the finest restaurants.)
