Skull in the Rock

One of the new non-fiction books now on the shelves at the Booth & Dimock Memorial Library is The Skill in the Rock: How a Scientist, a Boy and Google Earth Opened a New Window on Human Origins by Lee Berger and Marc Aronson.

It is a fascinating story of the discovery of a new species in caves found only through using Google Earth.

The best part, the authors have created a website to keep you (the reader) informed of new discoveries made in Sediba, a species from one of our distant ancestors. Visit the website here, especially if you are a fan of archeology, technology and discovery.
