Very clever. Evolving man is self aware and says things like, "We'll never get out of the pleistocene era if we don't evolve." Grampa thinks they should stay in the trees. Evolution man learns to bring fire back from a volcano but if the fire goes out he has to go back to the volcano. His boys each have different skills, e.g. cave painting, flint knapping, etc. They still court by hitting women over the head and dragging them by the hair. A fun read.

Not a hard book to read but so boring that I finally put it down.
