Mrs Neanderthal Meets Homo sapiens
This enthralling fable is the springboard for Pascal Picq’s questionings about today’s world and its contradictions
Pascal Picq, François Savigny
Tigers
The tiger is charged with symbolism. In myth and poetry it represents untamed force that can strike suddenly; it can appear stealthily out of nowhere, and vanish just as suddenly.
Pascal Picq
Who will take power? Great apes, Politicians or Robots
Like Yuval Noah Harari’s Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind… with a dash of humour and a knowledge of prehistory too! Transhumanism, which is at the core of this book, is the subject of the moment.
Pascal Picq
Women, Modernity and Progress
A book that looks back at history from an evolutionary perspective, by bringing women to the forefront of history and rejecting gender stereotypes that are often endorsed by historians themselves.
Pascal Picq
Is Man a Political Ape?
Political practices examined by an eminent palaeoanthropologist and primatologist.
