The Evolution Man

Here is a typical Stone Age family, as imagined by Roy Lewis. Father, who has a scientific turn of mind, has just discovered fire. Mother makes sure the children finish supper, even when the platdu jour is toad. Uncle Vanya thinks that the species has been flirting with disaster ever since it began to chip flint into tools. While little Alexander has gotten himself in deep trouble by making the first cave painting, artists are always misunderstood.
