Wilfred Nieman Author Interview

Natural Insurrection takes readers on a journey through the evolutionary history of humanity and its impact on our modern existence, exploring the predatory nature and cognitive growth of human evolution. Why was this an important book for you to write?

I started putting my ideas on human evolution together some 30 years ago. I had no doubt that I was onto something, and just had to put it in writing.

How much research did you undertake for this book and how much time did it take to put it all together?

Research took up most of the work. I started out in 2002, writing/researching full time for a year, until other obligations had me re-enter the business world. It was not until 2018 that I again found the time to continue. In all, I would estimate that the book took 5 years to complete.

What were some ideas that were important for you to share in this book?

In the book I challenge conventional thinking on human evolution. This is an entirely new approach to the debate, focusing on the predatory development of humanity.

What is one thing that people point out after reading your book that surprises you?

What surprises me is that the average reader, unaccustomed to nonfiction, enjoys the read.

A unique new perspective on human evolution.

The manuscript Natural Insurrection: The Predatory Legacy of Man lay untouched in a dusty cabinet for more than a decade. Written on location, overlooking the hills and valleys of the Cradle of Mankind, this investigation into Man’s predatory evolution was eventually reworked and made available for publication.

Predatory delinquency, the phenomenon of preying on one’s ‘own kind’ laid the foundation for Man’s predatory transition.

Cannibalism was not merely an occurrence in human evolution; it was once a practice that extended over hundreds of thousands of years.

Man’s bipedal stance, manual dexterity and mental prowess reflect the adaptations of a carnivorous anthropoid.
This is a well-researched and revolutionary approach to the development of humankind. Like many other creatures, Mankind has undergone the transformation from herbivore to fully fledged predator. Hunting tree-dwelling primates most likely initiated the process, but it is against fellow bipeds that Man sharpened his wits. The butchered remains of Homo, spanning a million years, bear testimony to this.
