Curse of the Mummies
The last chapter of "Protein Power" is on this topic. Very interesting!
I also remember, from some TV special I watched years ago, that some anthropologist came up with a theory as to how *very* early humans - proto-humans, I guess - managed to get meat without having to chase it down and without having to directly compete with other predators.
This guy's idea was that we were *scavengers* - that we'd go after the bones left behind by the predators, crack them with big rocks, and eat the fatty marrow. That's only one theory, but it sounds plausible. So much for the 'natural' low-fat optimal diet!
