520 |a Since the Western world first became aware of the existence of Neanderthals, this Pleistocene human has been a regular focus of interest among specialists and also among the general public. In fact, we know far more about Neanderthals than we do about any other extinct human population.

This book presents the status of our knowledge as well as the methods and techniques used to study this extinct population and it suggests perspectives for future research
