The Effects of Climate and Geology on Hominins in the Pleistocene, a new book by Christine West, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

The history of man is complicated and intriguing. The Earth is in constant motion, not only through space but also at Earth's surface with shifting plate tectonics. Asteroids hit us, ice ages come and go, and volcanoes erupt across our world daily. This constant bombardment of lava, melting and freezing, as well as the minerals and elements that are released, affect all life on Earth.

Climate, migration, and geology have undeniably changed hominin genetics over time. This book explores how these factors have affected hominins throughout the Pleistocene and into our world today.
