Much better than the typical view of pre-civilization or pre-recorded history, this book opens a door into a condition of vulnerability people once knew as daily reality. You could compare those far-past times to the recent experiences of people in the Ukraine, Poland, or Belarus where outside forces came in to kill, deport, starve, and brutalize a population until it was a hollowed and weakened shell of itself. This book is a decent start to a typically ignored topic.

Compelling and relying on evidence. Some might find it entirely too technical, but I am finding the work fascinating. The myth of peaceful prehistory among indigenous populations is exposed.
