ISBN: 9780415322805 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Disease is an ever-present threat faced by all human societies. Today, this concept has become an influential area of study known as the global burden of disease, which encompasses contemporary health concerns such as the economic costs of disease, the societal impact of illness in developing nations, and infectious diseases resulting from lifestyle exposures. Before we can ease this global burden, it is essential to establish an accurate view of the current status of human health and disease around the world.
Addressing key areas that reflect our understanding of disease, The Changing... Disease is an ever-present threat faced by all human societies. Today, this concept has become an influential area of study known as the global burden...

Queerness in Play
ISBN: 9783319905419 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 279 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Queerness in Play examines the many ways queerness of all kinds-from queer as `LGBT' to other, less well-covered aspects of the queer spectrum-intersects with games and the social contexts of play. The current unprecedented visibility of queer creators and content comes at a high tide of resistance to the inclusion of those outside a long-imagined cisgender, heterosexual, white male norm. By critically engaging the ways games-as a culture, an industry, and a medium-help reproduce limiting binary formations of gender and sexuality, Queerness in Play contributes to the growing body of...

Variability in Human Fertility
ISBN: 9780521117944 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many wrongly believe that reproductive cycles are very similar among human females. In actuality, there are considerable variations among individuals and within the reproductive life of any given female. "Normal" reproductive cycles cover a wide range of examples, and the likelihood of successful monthly egg release and ensuing pregnancy can be modified by many factors. In this book, the variability of human fertility is examined by looking first at the physiological processes regulating reproduction. Interpopulation variation in normal ovarian function is then discussed, covering the...

Human Mating Patterns
ISBN: 9780521114684 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1988, this book examines the causes and consequences of different mating patterns in man with particular reference to biological, medical and demographic factors. Although the effects of inbreeding on genetic structure and gene frequencies have been well covered in the medical genetics literature, and specific social systems have been described in social anthropology texts, this attempts to present an holistic approach. Four main areas are covered: historical and demographic aspects; mate choice and assortative mating; social systems, religious rules and mating practices;...

Migration and Colonization in Human Microevolution
ISBN: 9780521019545 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Migration and colonization are major forces affecting the frequency, spatial pattern and spread of genes in human populations. Here, Alan Fix reviews theories of migration developed by biologists and social scientists and surveys patterns of migration in a diverse sample of human populations. Using these empirical studies, he evaluates models of migration developed by population geneticists and explores more realistic models using computer simulation. He then shows the relevance of studies of migration as a microevolutionary process to the understanding of longer term global patterns of human...

Human Variability and Plasticity
ISBN: 9780521018555 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Plasticity refers to the ability of many organisms to change their biology or behavior to respond to changes in the environment. Humans are probably the most plastic of all species, and hence the most variable. This is the first book to examine the history of research in this area and it provides information on state-of-the-art research methods and discoveries. It also maps out some areas of future research in human plasticity and variability. Topics discussed include child growth, starvation, diseases of both young and old, and the effects of migration, modernization and other life-style...

The First Boat People
ISBN: 9780521856560 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The First Boat People concerns how people travelled across the world to Australia in the Pleistocene. It traces movement from Africa to Australia, offering a new view of population growth at that time, challenging current ideas, and underscoring problems with the 'Out of Africa' theory of how modern humans emerged. The variety of routes, strategies and opportunities that could have been used by those first migrants is proposed against the very different regional geography that existed at that time. Steve Webb shows the impact of human entry into Australia on the megafauna using fresh evidence...

Comparative studies have become both more frequent and more important as a means for understanding the biology, behavior, and evolution of mammals. Primates have complex social relationships and diverse ecologies, and represent a large species radiation. This book draws together a wide range of experts from diverse fields, such as reproductive biology and foraging energetics, to place recent field research into a synthetic perspective. The chapters tackle controversial issues in primate biology and behavior, including the role of brain expansion and infanticide in the evolution of primate...

Body Composition in Biological Anthropology
ISBN: 9780521019033 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume provides a thought-provoking, interdisciplinary perspective on the empirical and analytic study of body composition and the techniques used for measuring body components, such as fat, water, muscle, and bone mass and density. The nature of regional differences, developmental changes, pathological abnormalities, and the impact of heredity and environment in shaping body composition are discussed in the context of human evolution. For instance, the author looks at how growth, aging, and exposure to heat, cold, excess or lack of nourishment modify normal body composition.
