Charles Lyell's 1865 book The Geologic Evidences for the Antiquity of Man was important because it:
 
  a. Documented the fact that humans had lived with now-extinct animals in the distant past.
  b. Provided evidence that humans had been on the earth for a far shorter time than other scholars of the time suggested.
