Human Birth: An Evolutionary Perspective
ISBN: 9781412815024 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The story of human evolution has been told hundreds of times, each time with a focus that seems most informative of the teller. No matter how it is told the primary characters are rarely mothers and infants. Darwin argued survival, but today we know that reproduction is what evolution is all about. Centering on this, Trevathan focuses on birth, which gives the study of human evolution a crucial new dimension. Unique among mammals, humans are bipedal. The evolution of bipedalism required fundamental changes in the pelvis and resulted in a narrow birth canal. Humans are also large-brained...

Costly and Cute: Helpless Infants and Human Evolution
ISBN: 9780826357458 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Scholars have long argued that the developmental state of the human infant at birth is unique. This volume expands that argument, pointing out that many distinctively human characteristics can be traced to the fact that we give birth to infants who are highly dependent on others and who learn how to be human while their brains are experiencing growth unlike that seen in other primates. The contributors to this volume propose that the helpless infant has played a role in human evolution equal in importance to those of man the hunter and woman the gatherer. The authors take a broad look at... Scholars have long argued that the developmental state of the human infant at birth is unique. This volume expands that argument, pointing out that... |
