What I am learning by digesting the subject from many different viewpoints/authors is that the "evolutionary tree" we were taught is actually more of a bush. So many forms of humans have walked the Earth and were evolved out of existence by a better model. I am also learning that Paleoanthropologists, while adding great knowledge to our human story they also inhibit it by not evolving with new discoveries.

I think this book is a nice summary of why it has taken so long to better understand our (human) evolution. Palaeoanthropology in a sense is very responsible for the divided human species we see today. The fossil record, DNA and such categorically prove we evolved here and divine entity played a part. Yet, probably 50% of the world believe we were created by a god. The past misinformation has distorted the truth.
