I was amazed to hear Hardy being given time at the Royal Society of London
(a comment on the idea and the Society!) in 1980.  A paper was subsequently
published in the volume from that symposium: Lumiere "Evolution of human
bipedalism" Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London B
292, 103-107.
Elaine Morgan raises some really interesting problems for which her
elaboration of the theory seem to offer a plauible explanation, but
plausibility is not really enough.
