Book Description

في قبو يخضع لحماية أمنية مكثفة، يقع في قلب أحد أكبر متاحف التاريخ الطبيعي في العالم، يرقد اكتشاف علمي لا يتكرر، فثمة حفرية مثالية لإحدى الرئيسات الأولى، أقدم حتى من «لوسي»، الحفرية الأكثر شهرة فيما سبق بأربعة وأربعين مليون عام.
وحفرية «إيدا» التي لم تزل سراً حتى الآن، تُعد أكثر حفريات الرئيسات الأولى اكتمالاً.
و يقدم لنا كتاب «الحلقة المفقودة» تحقيقاً شاملاً عن «إيدا» والأصول الأولى للبشرية، فضلاً عن القصة العلمية البوليسية الرائعة التي أعقبت اكتشاف «إيدا». وفي الوقت ذاته، يفتح لنا هذا الكتاب شرفة ثرية ومذهلة على الماضي الإنساني السحيق، ويغير من ثم ما نعرفه عن تطور الرئيسات، والبشر في نهاية المطاف.
