Symbolic thought is fundamental to human existence. If social anthropology cannot explain it, what can? Alan Barnard applies ideas from social anthropology to questions being explored in archaeology, linguistics, genetics and neuroscience, considering the explosion of art, religion and language that lies at the heart of what makes us human.
