What promised to be a refreshing addition to cumulative cultural evolution, by moving the focus from cultural transmission to technological innovation, falls flat through a lack of thoroughness, explanatory power, and data. A comprehensive theory of cumulative cultural change must carefully integrate all existing evidence in a cohesive multi-level account. We argue that the manuscript fails to do so convincingly.
本应是累积性文化进化中一个令人耳目一新的补充，将焦点从文化传播转移到技术创新，但由于缺乏全面性、解释力和数据而未能如愿。一个关于累积性文化变化的综合理论必须在一个连贯的多层次阐述中仔细整合所有现有证据。我们认为，该手稿未能令人信服地做到这一点。
