Description: John Noble Winford reviews 'The Man Who Found the Missing Link: Eugene Dubois and His Lifelong Quest to Prove Darwin Right' by Pat Shipman.
A biography of the scientist who discovered the first specimen of Homo erectus. THE MAN WHO FOUND THE MISSING LINK Eugène Dubois and His Lifelong Quest to Prove Darwin Right. ugene Dubois was born in 1858, two years after the discovery of the Neanderthal fossils and a year before Charles Darwin, with the publication of ''The Origin of Species,'' shook up science and the Victorian age with his theory of evolution through natural selection. Scientific evolution is about nothing if not change and transformation of the most fundamental kind; the history of life is dynamic. But the society into which Dubois was born, in the placid Dutch province of Limburg, was countrified, conservative and resistant to any notion that humans might be related to apes.
