How different might the history of our species have been had our hunter-gatherer forebears failed to migrate out of Africa in time to survive 70,000 years ago when threatened by extinction due to climate change brought on by the last ice age?

Yet despite all the signs of a potential greenhouse mass extinction, again due to climate change, this threat is still being ignored. This audiobook is a wake-up call and looks to evolution itself for guidance on how to avoid extinction.
