Oddly, we managed not to destroy ourselves but perhaps we backed stepped a great deal on science. Sagan contemplated “If we don’t destroy ourselves, most of us will be around for the answers”, as the 1970s were alive with new science and discoveries. In the afore mentioned book Sagan, pays homage to French anthropologist Pau1 Broca (1824-1880) whom discovered among other things, different functions come from, or are assigned to, different parts of the brain, including flintknapping.
