You know, Lucy is believed to be ancestral to all of the later Australopithecines species and
also our own genus Homo which includes everything from us to Neandertals, to the little Hobbits of Flores and, you know, we cover all of this in the book, and it's just incredible to see how much new information about all of Lucy's descendants has been uncovered in the past couple of decades, truly an astonishing period for
paleoanthropology.
