Description:
We all slap the water furiously with our tails, but unlike the whale, we humans believe that our splashing matters.

September 2003. In a cave on Flores, Indonesia, a fossilized prehistoric man is uncovered, barely a meter tall. Surrounding her are skeletons of rats as big as dogs, elephants as small as ponies, and giant storks measuring 1 meter 80. What does this mirror world say about who we are and where we come from?
We, the Human takes the reader on a philosophical journey around the world – from the Meuse Valley to the volcanic slopes of Indonesia. The stakes are high. Because if we are the superlative of the animal, what is the difference?
