    Professor Alice Roberts work never ceases to amaze me, but each one just is more stellar than the previous - and this takes the cake ! Will be ordering these for my grand children as soon as I can. Wish we could order signed copies ! Wonderful, just wonderful !

    Alice Roberts channels her inner hunter-gatherer with a Swiss Army knife. Great book too.

      Impressive how Alice’s blade sliced through the packaging like butter. I’m going to go and sharpen my Swiss Army knife right now.

    Yes, when you wrote it you are allowed an advanced copy :-) Loved the TV-series, didn't know there was an accompanying book.

    Good book for the young ones. Amazed you didn’t illustrate it yourself given your skills.
    Also now an official TH-camr having done an unboxing. 😁

    Well done, Prof. Roberts. This book is sorely needed for children in today’s world. Looks like a great introduction.

    The target audience might be kids but I'm excited as an adult. It even looks like a beautiful coffee table book. Can't wait to get my hands on a copy here in Australia.

    I congratulate you for your book that summarizes the total change of human life for children who have been raised with prejudices. Thank you Prof. Alice Roberts.

    Bought this for my daughter's birthday and we read it cover to cover together. It is well written and the illustrations are beautiful. It has helped us to talk though some of the many questions my children ask about early humans. Thank you.

    SO excited!!! I have your books and have always hoped a Children's Book version of your amazing tv series would come out, and you've done it!!!
    Thank you for being such an enthusiastic and inspiring scientist - particularly a female one at that! - for us all to look up to, big and small ☺

    Ah! You have your own channel, now! Excellent! :) I've followed your work since "Incredible Human Journey," with a back-track to "Time Team," etc. Thanks for all you do and have done, Alice! I will definitely be buying the new book, too!

    • @GaryR55
      @GaryR55 ปีที่แล้ว

      ...but, I would remiss for not mentioning that I've been following our mutual human story since I was 7 and wanted to grow up to be an archaeologist, inspired by the finds of the Leakeys, back when those finds were taking place, in the fifties. So, them, you, Spencer Wells, Razib Khan, Chris Stringer and many others have influenced me nearly all my life.

    Hi Alice. I subscribed to your channel a couple of weeks ago or so now and this is the first video I've watched (my apologies) and think you're great! I've watched most of your TV shows since Time Team and follow you on Instagram too... Really enjoy your work and wish you every success in the future! Please keep the TH-cam videos coming as well as your Instagram stuff and TV shows because they really are appreciated!!

    youll have to sign it now :D

    I like how Prof. Alice Roberts shares her versatile researches and work, with all people.

    I will buy and read this as I am probably still at or below the children stage at of knowledge on all of this. I must say though that was a good shot of the dorsal venous network of veins on the back of your ✋. I'm supposing they could have been the cephalic vein and the basilic vein..though I'm probably wrong because I am still at or below the children's level on this as well.

  • @johnbarnes6568
    @johnbarnes6568 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That was some build up, I think I just about wet myself with all that atmospheric tension and your excitement. Surely not just for children, those illustrations look stunning. What's the chances of getting a personalised signed copy, there must be a chance. It's always rubbish coming home from holiday, never changes.

      John Barnes I’ll be out at book festivals as soon as we can all gather - doing readings and signings. Thank you for the kind words!

    Unfortunately Alice thinks we evolved from monkey's. She doesn't believe in a creator God who created humans in His likeness and animals each after their kind.
