This series, developed by S. L. Washburn, is a publication of the Society for the Study of Human Evolution, Berkeley, California. The series was created to bring together the variety of evidence which helps us understand the process that has created mankind. It presents topical articles on human evolution concerning the fossil record, stone tools and biosocial problems such as development of language - all of these are seen from the "Berkeley Perspective" as espoused by Washburn. Many of Washburn's students and close colleagues were asked to publish in this series. Volume IV, the last volume in this series, focuses on the following topics: natural selection, the brain, sexual behaviors and the social system. This volume also includes papers on the Piltdown fabrication and on tool-making by orangutans. No ownership marks and no signs of use.
