«La especie elegida» is an essay by Juan Luis Arsuaga and Ignacio Martínez, published by Ediciones Martínez Roca in paperback (344 pages, in Spanish).
Drawing on the fossil record and Atapuerca, Juan Luis Arsuaga and Ignacio Martínez reconstruct human evolution and ask whether our species is a necessary consequence or an accident. The book addresses whether bipedalism or intelligence came first, the origin of language, monogamy, the lifestyle and diet of our ancestors.
Published in 1998, «La especie elegida» is the first title in the Tanto por Saber collection and includes illustrations by Mauricio Antón.
Aimed at readers interested in paleontology, human evolution and science communication.

Juan Luis Arsuaga Ferreras is a Spanish paleoanthropologist and author known for his work in the Atapuerca Archaeological Site.
