Stringer's new theory, based on archeological and genetic evidence, holds that distinct humans coexisted and competed across the African continent-exchanging genes, tools, and behavioral strategies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eStringer draws on analyses of old and new fossils from around the world, DNA studies of Neanderthals (using the full genome map) and other species, and recent archeological digs to unveil his new theory. He shows how the most sensational recent fossil findings fit with his model, and he questions previous concepts (including his own) of modernity and how it evolved. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eLone Survivors\u003c\/i\u003e is the definitive account of who and what we were, and will change perceptions about our origins and about what it means to be human.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCHRIS STRINGER is the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Complete World of Human Evolution\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHomo britannicus\u003c\/i\u003e, and more than two hundred books and papers on the subject of human evolution.
