Theories about how our ancestors lived - and why we should emulate them - are often based on pseudoscience and speculation rather than actual research. Zuk shows how our visions of an ideal evolutionary past in which we ate, lived and reproduced as we were "meant to" can lead us astray and distract us from more interesting considerations of how we differ from our forebears.
