The book reaches out to palaeoanthropologists to explain how evolutionary adaptations were necessarily related to ecological shifts in savannas governed by seasonal dryness. For ecologists, it both outlines the fundamentals of savanna ecology and shows how its features nurtured the evolutionary transitions leading to modern humans.
