When in October 2004 the prestigious science publication NATURE
published the discovery of a 1 metre tall hominid skeleton,
the world's press went wild. Hailed as one of the most important
scientific discoveries for years, the 'Hobbit', as the adult female
came to be known, entered the history books. But until now none of the
members of the original archaeological team have told their story in
book form.

THE DISCOVERY OF THE HOBBIT, written by the Mike Morwood with Eureka
Prize
winner Penny van Oosterzee, describes in vivid detail what the
project was
aiming to achieve, what it was like to stumble across such a find,
what it
means for our understanding of human evolutionary history, and the
strange
post-excavation history of the find.
