This comprehensive introduction demonstrates the theoretical perspectives and concepts that are applied to primate behavior, and explores the relevance of non-human primates to understanding human behavior. Using a streamlined and student-friendly taxonomic framework, King provides a thorough overview of the primate order. The chapters cover common features and diversity, and touch on ecology, sociality, life history, and cognition. Text boxes are included throughout the discussion featuring additional topics and more sophisticated taxonomy. The book contains a wealth of illustrations, and further resources to support teaching and learning are available via a companion website. Written in an engaging and approachable style, this is an invaluable resource for students of primate behavior as well as human evolution.

Описание: Chimpanzees from different regions of Africa do things differently, as do humans from different countries. The question of why highlights the debate about culture. Wild Cultures takes readers into the lives of chimpanzees. This journey reveals many parallels between humans and chimpanzees and points to striking differences.

Описание: Infrastructure development in Africa and Asia is expanding at breakneck speed, largely in biodiversity-rich developing nations. The trend reflects governments' efforts to promote economic growth in response to increasing populations, rising consumption rates and persistent inequalities. Large-scale infrastructure development is regularly touted as a way to meet the growing demand for energy, transport and food - and as a key to poverty alleviation. In practice, however, road networks, hydropower dams and 'development corridors' tend to have adverse effects on local populations, natural habitats and biodiversity. Such projects typically weaken the capacity of ecosystems to maintain ecological functions on which wildlife and human communities depend, particularly in the face of climate change.

Автор: Matthieu Le Bailly, Piers D. Mitchell Название: Parasites in Past Civilizations and Their Impact upon Health ISBN: 1107000777 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781107000773 Издательство: Cambridge Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 63350.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Parasites have been infecting humans throughout our evolution. When complex societies developed, the greater population density provided new opportunities for parasites to spread. In this interdisciplinary volume, the author brings his expertise in medicine, archaeology and history to explore the contribution of parasites in causing flourishing past civilizations to falter and decline. By using cutting edge methods, Mitchell presents the evidence for parasites that infected the peoples of key ancient civilizations across the world in order to understand their impact upon those populations. This new understanding of the archaeological and historical evidence for intestinal worms, ectoparasites, and protozoa shows how different cultures were burdened by contrasting types of diseases depending upon their geographical location, endemic insects, food preferences and cultural beliefs.

Описание: This volume demonstrates the role of cellular mechanisms in the production of specializations defining primates with respect to locomotion, energetics and diet. We highlight how genetic analysis, visualization of cells and tissues, and merging Evo-Devo with cell biology combine to answer questions central to understanding primate evolution.
