Adventures in the Bone Trade: The Race to Discover Human Ancestors in Ethiopia's Afar Depression

Editorial Reviews
Scientific American, March 2001
Kalb tells the story of his work, the scientific infighting, and the political turmoil in Ethiopia during his years there with verve and thoroughness.

Washington Post Book World, February 11, 2001
Alongside the story of the [Afar] region's paleohistory...Kalb sets a less pretty tale of the jealousies among the bone hunters he knew and worked with.
