Tom Harrison

    Tom Harrisson byl všestranný badatel, jehož zájmy sahaly od ornitologie a antropologie po terénní výzkum a vojenskou službu. Svou kariéru zahájil terénním výzkumem v Borneu a Nových Hebridách a později spoluzaložil projekt Mass-Observation, který zkoumal každodenní životy obyčejných lidí v Británii. Během druhé světové války se zapojil do speciálních operací a podílel se na záchraně sestřelených amerických letců. Jeho pozdější archeologické práce v jeskyních Niah odhalily rané lidské ostatky a jeho života se dotkla řada dokumentů a biografií.
