This volume explores how hominin 'brains' became recognisably human 'minds', comparing perspectives from the humanities, social, and biological sciences. New ideas associated with the social brain hypothesis and the concept of the distributed mind, allow us to envisage what might have happened in this crucial phase leading up to modern humans.
