The debate is covered well (from a multiregionalist point of view?) at:

which has pictures of the skulls and a synthesis of the arguement from Peter
Brown who wrote a good paper on this (although I don't agree with his

Aitken, M.J., Stringer, C.B. & Mellars, P.A. (eds) The Origins of Modern
Humans and the Impact of Chronological Dating. Princeton University Press,
