From 300,000 years ago, when homo sapiens developed, until about 10,000 years ago, all of us were hunter-gatherers. Tony Lunn will take you on a rare visit to some of the last remaining hunter-gatherers in the world, the Hadza of Tanzania, to see how they live today. He then examines what insights their present lifestyle can give on how the earliest humans lived, and what we can infer about the development of our human culture, including cooperation, war, and religion.

(doctorate) In his career he developed medical devices including advanced coronary stents.
