High Resolution Archaeology and Neanderthal Behavior: Time and Space in Level J of Abric Romaní (Capellades, Spain)
ISBN: 9789400739215 / Angielski / Twarda / 411 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The aim of this book is to provide a new insight on Neanderthal behaviour using the data recovered in level J of Romani rockshelter (north-eastern Spain). Due to the sedimentary dynamics that formed the Romani deposit, the occupation layers are characterized by a high temporal resolution, which makes it easier to interprete the archaeological data in behavioural terms. In addition, the different analytical domains(geoarchaeology, lithic technology, zooarchaeology, taphonomy, anthracology, palaeontology) are addressed from a spatial perspective that is basic to understand human behaviour, but...

This is an illustrated treatment of and guide to all the fossil and present-day species of butterflies in one of the richest areas in North America for butterfly diversity and study. For much of the year, the meadows, forests, and grassy slopes of the Florissant region of central Colorado are alive with butterflies - nearly 100 species of these fascinating and beautiful creatures. Many of them have unusual life histories: the larvae (caterpillars) of one species take two years to mature; others develop close associations with ants; and the adults of some species live only a few days, whereas...

Southern Hemisphere Palaeobiogeography of Triassic-Jurassic Marine Bivalves
ISBN: 9789400750975 / Angielski / Miękka / 139 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Palaeobiogeography is a complex subject which processes information provided by both Biology and Earth Sciences. It is conceptually and philosophically equivalent to neobiogeography. Nevertheless, its methods are somewhat different, since it is limited by the incompleteness of the fossil record. On the other hand, it has direct access to the time dimension, a key ingredient of organic evolution. Mesozoic benthonic mollusks, and especially bivalves, have a great potential for palaeobiogeographical analysis due to their commonly good preservation, abundance, diversity and high dispersion...

South American and Antarctic Continental Cenozoic Birds: Paleobiogeographic Affinities and Disparities
ISBN: 9789400754669 / Angielski / Miękka / 113 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Modern birds (Neornithes) are represented by two big lineages, the Palaeognathae (Tinamiformes + Ratitae) and the Neognathae Galloanserae ] Neoaves (Metaves + Coronoaves)]. Both clades sum approximately 10,000 species of which 60% are Passeriformes (the most diverse clade of terrestrial vertebrates). A comparison between the past and the present reveals a complex and hallmarked evolutionary and biogeographic history which would have begun over 65 million years ago. For South America (SA) this includes: (1) the presence of taxa with uncertain affinities and the absence of Passeriformes during...

Ewolucja a Chrystus
ISBN: 9788375801194 / Polski / Miękka / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Wykląć ewolucję, czy ochrzcić? Książka amerykańskiej franciszkanki wypowiada się wyraźnie za tym drugim rozwiązaniem. Choć jest krytyczna wobec nadużywania teorii ewolucji przez materialistyczny naturalizm, nie podważa jej wartości naukowej. Uważa, że ewolucja jest skutkiem Bożego planu co do świata. Wspaniałość wszechświata materialnego pozwala lepiej ogarnąć wielkość Chrystusa jako Pana świata, pogłębić duchowość chrześcijańską, a także zrozumieć miejsce człowieka w złożonym świecie. Takie spojrzenie pomocne jest dla dialogu wiary i nauki.
