fascinating conversation on this mornings R4 Today about the transition from hunter -gatherers to settled farmers.
Apparently hunter - gatherers had a true egaliterrean existence based on find and share and that the conversion to farming has created disease in the food chain ,led to world wars and possibly in cahoots with global over population.
Hunter -gatherers also were the first pioneers of GM crop manipulation.
seems like an essential read.
