"""This is a landmark work. It provides a major synthesis of a huge body of cultural and environmental information and offers a number of original, provocative insights into hunter-gatherer lifeways. It also provides a methodological framework that should be highly influential for years to come."" - Jeremy A. Sabloff, Williams Director of the University of Pennsylvania Museum ""This is a very significant contribution to the field.... Many of the ideas presented in this book were foreshadowed in [Binford's] earlier work, but nowhere have they been developed as fully as they are here."" - James F. O'Connell, author of A Prehistory of Australia, New Guinea, and Sahul"""
