    <![CDATA[  Nicholas Wade’s articles are a major reason why the science section has become the most   popular, nationwide, in the <em>New York Times</em>. In his groundbreaking <em>Before the   Dawn</em>, Wade reveals humanity’s origins as never before—a journey made possible only   recently by genetic science, whose incredible findings have answered such questions as: What   was the first human language like? How large were the first societies, and how warlike were   they? When did our ancestors first leave Africa, and by what route did they leave? By eloquently   solving these and numerous other mysteries, Wade offers nothing less than a uniquely complete   retelling of a story that began 500 centuries ago.]]>
