The interesting thing about the book is it explains that a quantum computer is not actually doing computations but it's actually searching all possible timelines for the answer to the question that already exists in another timeline and then it brings that into your timeline. Thus if there's a screw up in the experiment it actually creates a bigger bridge between different timelines and in this case causes a neanderthal to be able to jump into our human timeline.
It's actually a really good SyFy series except for the brief and not too stressed to mention that in the Neanderthal timeline the men and women live separately except when mating and the men are butt fucking each other in the meantime. Other than that it's pretty cool series but of course publishers I guess would demand that the fucking author put that shit in there.

Definitely a 'decolonised' individual.
