The Upright Ape: A New Origin of the Species

By Aaron G. Filler

Book Overview

"A neurosurgeon and evolutionary scholar presents a bold new theory on the early origins of the hominiform (human-like) primates . . . Thought-provoking." --Kirkus Reviews

Drawing on such diverse antecedents as history, myth, and religion, as well as modern developments in biology and genetics, the author bravely questions and rejects the reigning scientific orthodoxy and shows how humans and apes may have had a common upright ancestor--an upright ape that walked on two legs much as we do now.

"Fuller's book is very interesting and well worth reading. His evaluation of this mid lumbar vertebrae fossil may well become the watershed opinion guiding future understanding of evolution. I highly recommend The Upright Ape." --Compulsive Reader
