The beginning of the Neolithic in Britain marks the end of a hunter-gatherer way of life with the introduction of domesticated plants and animals, polished stone tools, and a range of new monuments. Using a synthesis of this material, Thomas offers a coherent argument to explain the process of transition between the Mesolithic-Neolithic periods.
