Extract

The writers of this important and interesting symposium did not set out to answer all the questions that they ask, and this was wise and modest. They wanted to think afresh themselves about old problems-problems of the inter-relationships and origins of British megalithic tombs that have been discussed for over a hundred years-in the light of new knowledge, and to make all other megalithic enquirers do the same. In this they have succeeded: this stimulating and thoughtprovoking book must be read by all concerned with the prehistory of western Europe in the 4th and 3rd millennia BC.
