ISBN: 9781780226880 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Why are humans one of the few species to have sex in private? Why do humans have sex any day of the month or year, including when the female is pregnant, beyond her reproductive years, or between her fertile cycles? Why are human females one of the few mammals to go through menopause? Human sexuality seems normal to us but it is bizarre by the standards of other animals.

Some central questions in the natural and social sciences can't be answered by controlled laboratory experiments, often considered to be the hallmark of the scientific method.

This book consists of eight comparative studies...

This conference represents the first time in my life when I felt it was a misfor- tune, rather than a major cause of my happiness, that I do conservation work in New Guinea.

In the course of my work there, helping the Indonesian government and World Wildlife Fund set up a comprehensive national park system, I have been able to study animals in areas without any human population. But New Guinea has one serious drawback: it has no primates, except...

ISBN: 9788382029024 / Polski / miękka ze skrzydełkami / 670 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Błyskotliwe spojrzenie na dzieje ludzkości, które udowadnia, że to czynniki geograficzne i środowiskowe ukształtowały naszą cywilizację. Kilkanaście tysięcy lat temu ludy zamieszkujące Ziemię niczym istotnym nie różniły się między sobą. Ludzie epoki kamienia żyli dzięki łowiectwu i zbieractwu. Gdy udomowiono zwierzęta i zaczęto uprawiać rośliny, to lud Eurazji zdobył przewagę nad innymi. Symbolem postępu stały się strzelby (broń), zarazki i stal (narzędzia). To umożliwiło im podbój świata. U zarania ludzkości mieszkańcy każdego z kontynentów mieli w...
