Automated excerpt
Sahlins’ scientific history begins centuries before the discovery of Neanderthal 1. The mapping of the Neanderthal genome in 2010 showed that Neanderthals are not just among us, but within us. He is also an erudite and entertaining guide, offering novel perspectives on the latest science, for example the 2026 discovery that interbreeding was predominantly between Neanderthal males and human females, and not between Neanderthal females and human males.
