How to Think Like a Neandertal

"There have been many books, movies, and even TV commercials featuring Neandertals--some serious, some comical. But what was it really like to be a Neandertal? How were their lives similar to or different from ours? In How to Think Like a Neandertal, archaeologist Thomas Wynn and psychologist Frederick L. Coolidge team up to provide a brilliant account of the mental life of Neandertals, drawing on the most recent fossil and archaeological remains. Their eye-opening portrait of Neandertals paints a remarkable picture of these long-vanished people and provides insight, as they go along, into our own minds and culture"--
