Download or read book Perspectives in Human Biology written by Loren W. Knapp and published by Brooks Cole. This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perspectives in Human Biology offers students a unique look at the ways we study ourselves and the connection between the smallest units of matter (atoms and molecules) to the largest (ecosystems). Covering the basics of human biology, Knapp begins with a concise overview of science and scientific thinking. Early on, the author discusses the chemistry of life and cells and tissues, linking the conceptual nature of atoms and molecules to the actual behavior of cells. Discussions of human behavior, evolution, and genetics further clarify our link to all life on Earth. He concludes with a look at the bioshpere, the delicate balance of forces, and the roles science and human intelligence play now and in the future.

Download or read book Social Information Transmission and Human Biology written by Jonathan CK Wells and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2006-05-22 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent research has emphasized that socially transmitted information may affect both the gene pool and the phenotypes of individuals and populations, and that an improved understanding of evolutionary issues is beneficial to those working towards the improvement of human health. In response to a growing interest across disciplines for information regarding the contribution of social behavior to a range of biological outcomes, Social Information Transmission and Human Biology connects the work of evolutionary theorists and those dealing with practical issues in human health and demographics. Combining evolutionary models with biomedical research, authors from various disciplines look at how human behavior influences health, and how reproductive fitness sheds light on the processes that shaped the evolution of human behavior. Both academic and medical researchers will find much useful insight in this text.
