Download or read book The Anthropology of Modern Human Teeth written by G. Richard Scott and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All humans share certain components of tooth structure, but show variation in size and morphology around this shared pattern. This book presents a worldwide synthesis of the global variation in tooth morphology in recent populations. Research has advanced on many fronts since the publication of the first edition, which has become a seminal work on the subject. This revised and updated edition introduces new ideas in dental genetics and ontogeny and summarizes major historical problems addressed by dental morphology. The detailed descriptions of 29 dental variables are fully updated with current data and include details of a new web-based application for using crown and root morphology to evaluate ancestry in forensic cases. A new chapter describes what constitutes a modern human dentition in the context of the hominin fossil record.

Download or read book Yuendumu written by Tasman Brown and published by University of Adelaide Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive account of a unique pioneering longitudinal study of human growth that continues to contribute to our knowledge and raise new questions 60 years after it commenced. Although over 200 scientific publications have arisen from the study, this book describes, in a single volume, the key researchers involved, the Australian Aboriginal people from Yuendumu who participated in the study, and the main outcomes. The findings have provided new insights into how teeth function, as well as factors affecting oral health and physical growth. General readers, as well as students and researchers, will find much of interest in this volume.
Download or read book Making Sense of Heritability written by Neven Sesardic and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-10-13 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Neven Sesardic defends the view that it is both possible and useful to measure the separate contributions of heredity and environment to the explanation of human psychological differences. He critically examines the view - very widely accepted by scientists, social scientists and philosophers of science - that heritability estimates have no causal implications and are devoid of any interest. In a series of clearly written chapters he introduces the reader to the problems and subjects the arguments to close philosophical scrutiny. His conclusion is that anti-heritability arguments are based on conceptual confusions and misunderstandings of behavioural genetics. His book is a fresh and compelling intervention in a very contentious debate.
Download or read book Planning and Care for Children and Adolescents with Dental Enamel Defects written by Bernadette K. Drummond and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-24 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defective development of tooth enamel or dentin is a significant dental problem for children and adolescents in various respects, and dentists and other oral health workers find managing these problems challenging and stressful. While a considerable amount of relevant research is currently being undertaken, much further investigation is needed. This book discusses the known causes of defective dental enamel and explains why it is so difficult to restore. Most importantly, it presents the signs and symptoms that allow accurate diagnosis and documents the best contemporary management. The full range of enamel defects is considered, including defects in primary teeth and permanent teeth, associated syndromes, molar incisor hypomineralization, and genetic defects. The clinical chapters are well illustrated, providing clear guidelines for each procedure. In addition, avenues for future research are identified, with explanation of their rationale.
Download or read book The Biology of Twinning in Man written by M. G. Bulmer and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1970 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twins are probably by no means unknown to most people - for instance in the sporting world of my Australian homeland there are quite a number of cases of note - yet very few people understand the biology behind twins. Although this book suffers a good deal from its age - people like Tim Flannery, Tom McMahon, John Rushton, and Michael Laker clearly give evidence that there is something much more "designed" than randomness involved in dizygotic twin frequencies around the world - if you want a basic introduction to the facts about twinning in humans you will get it here without any doubt. Bulmer deals with every aspects of twinning from the frequency of twinning in humans to the liabilities mothers of twins face vis-à-vis those of single children. He also goes into less common detail about the extreme difficulties of higher order multiple births - and provides little-known but easily understandable details about their frequency. Bulmer shows that for most of human history mothers of twins were at huge disadvantages both in terms of their much greater health risks and the low birth mass and short gestation of their children. For this reason, Bulmer shows that only when major health improvements were made could twins compete with singleton children, and he shows this had and has major consequences culturally. Another very interesting sidelight is Bulmer's look at how single birthing evolved as the most productive strategy in humans and other primates (except for the primitive tree shrews). Bulmer compares this with the situation in animals that typically give birth to multiple young. He should, however, have looked at the environmental conditions that encourage singleton births and compare with those animals that give birth to multiple, highly precocial offspring. All in all, though it is certainly dated, "Biology of Twinning in Man" is a simple and useful overview of what most people should know about multiple births in humans.
