Jolly demonstrates that the females who came after Lucy played as crucial a role in the human evolutionary process as "man" ever did. She shows us that to understand our origins and where we go next, we need to understand how sex and intelligence, cooperation and love, emerged from the harsh Darwinian struggle in the past.
