The Art of Tracking: The Origin of Science

In a work of painstaking and wide-ranging scholarship, backed up by fieldwork among the Kalahari hunter-gatherers, Louis Liebenberg explains how the art of tracking represents a crucial step in human evolution. Liebenberg examines the principles of tracking, and the classification and interpretation of spoor under difficult conditions. He also shows how the original speculative hypotheses of early hunter-gat herers ( hunting game ) have a direct line to the propositions of modern physicists who 'track' sub-atomic particles.
