Indigenous Fruit Trees in the Tropics: Domestication, Utillization and Commercialization
ISBN: 9781845931100 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. It has been recognized that an important factor in improving the viability of rural livelihoods in developing countries is the promotion of sustainable agriculture. As opposed to relying solely on cash crops, this can be more easily achieved through the domestication of various indigenous fruit trees that can be cultivated and owned by smallholder farmers. Through multi-functional and integrated farming systems, these tree crops can support environmental and social sustainability by providing food as well as promoting economic growth. Twenty years ago, little was known about the biology,...

Out of Africa I: The First Hominin Colonization of Eurasia
ISBN: 9789400733084 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For the first two thirds of our evolutionary history, we hominins were restricted to Africa. Dating from about two million years ago, hominin fossils first appear in Eurasia. This volume addresses many of the issues surrounding this initial hominin intercontinental dispersal. Why did hominins first leave Africa in the early Pleistocene and not earlier? What do we know about the adaptations of the hominins that dispersed - their diet, locomotor abilities, cultural abilities? Was there a single dispersal event or several? Was the hominin dispersal part of a broader faunal expansion of African...
