Me Jane, you Tarzan / Elaine Morgan ; interviewed by Lois Hansen and Julia Curtis.

If you ask any school kid what prehistoric society was like, you're sure to hear about cave men, cudgels and pulling women around by the hair. Until recently, neither children nor archeologists had attributed much importance to the role of cave women, not to mention that of she-apes, in determining the direction of pre-historic human development.
