    This is not a book about archaeological sites. We shall come across flint tools, bones, skulls, surprising structures, and layers of earth that we can date to different periods—but they are not the heart of the matter. This book is about us, human beings, and about our place in the world. About what we have done, where we came from, which other humans used to be here, why they are no longer with us, and how and why our lives have changed. It's also about where we went wrong. What did early humans do because they had no choice and what is the price we are paying for this now? 
     
     
     
    Taking as the focus ten sites in Israel, the land corridor through which the human species passed on its journey from Africa to Europe, the story ranges far and wide from France, Spain, Turkey, and Georgia to Morocco and South Africa, North America, Columbia, and Peru. The authors follow the footsteps of our ancestors, describing the tools they used, the animals they hunted and the monuments they built. 
     
     
     
    This provocative and panoramic book shows listeners what they can learn from their ancestors, and how the unwavering ability of prehistoric people to survive and thrive can continue into the present.

    Through The N Word, author Daniella Maison reveals the historical and present-day effects and ramifications of using the N word in modern language. In this book, Maison argues that the N word cannot be neutered, deemed unsullied, or recast as an innocent street idiom. Aimed at a generation who have incorporated the term into their everyday dialogue, Maison expounds the argument for boycotting the word completely. Whether you are undecided, a proud user of the word, or simply intrigued by the debate, The N Word offers a hard-hitting, insightful expose of a current issue that is right on time in the wake of the global Black Lives Matter movement.   "Truly superb writing." - Dali Tambo "Daniella Maison's ground-breaking publication helps to demystify the term and its impact on young people who live on social media. This book is a great resource to challenge the 'N word' for schools and youth club settings. As the late Bob Marley said we must free our minds from mental slavery, sadly the 'N word' is still part of the ongoing process of reclaiming our human rights and respect for all." - Patrick Vernon OBE, founder of Every Generation and 100 Great Black Britons
