Book Theoretical Anthropology

Download or read book Theoretical Anthropology written by David Bidney and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theoretical Anthropology is a major contribution to the historical and critical study of the assumptions underlying the development of modern cultural anthropology. In the new introduction, Martin Bidney discusses the present state of anthropology and contrasts it with the scene surveyed in Theoretical Anthropology. He discusses the relevance of David Bidney's work to our present concerns. Also included in this work is the second edition's introductory essay by David Bidney, written fifteen years after the first edition of Theoretical Anthropology. Here the author examines his original aims in writing this book. Theoretical Anthropology has helped to create among anthropologists the present climate of theoretical self-awareness and broad humanistic concerns. It has become a standard reference work for anthropologists as well as sociologists.

Download or read book Reticulate Evolution written by Nathalie Gontier and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for non-experts, this volume introduces the mechanisms that underlie reticulate evolution. Chapters are either accompanied with glossaries that explain new terminology or timelines that position pioneering scholars and their major discoveries in their historical contexts. The contributing authors outline the history and original context of discovery of symbiosis, symbiogenesis, lateral gene transfer, hybridization or divergence with gene flow and infectious heredity. By applying key insights from the areas of molecular (phylo)genetics, microbiology, virology, ecology, systematics, immunology, epidemiology and computational science, they demonstrate how reticulate evolution impacts successful survival, fitness and speciation. Reticulate evolution brings forth a challenge to the standard Neo-Darwinian framework, which defines life as the outcome of bifurcation and ramification patterns brought forth by the vertical mechanism of natural selection. Reticulate evolution puts forward a pattern in the tree of life that is characterized by horizontal mergings and lineage crossings induced by symbiosis, symbiogenesis, lateral gene transfer, hybridization or divergence with gene flow and infective heredity, making the “tree of life” look more like a “web of life.” On an epistemological level, the various means by which hereditary material can be transferred horizontally challenges our classic notions of units and levels of evolution, fitness, modes of transmission, linearity, communities and biological individuality. The case studies presented examine topics including the origin of the eukaryotic cell and its organelles through symbiogenesis; the origin of algae through primary and secondary symbiosis and dinoflagellates through tertiary symbiosis; the superorganism and holobiont as units of evolution; how endosymbiosis induces speciation in multicellular life forms; transferrable and non-transferrable plasmids and how they symbiotically interact with their host; the means by which pro- and eukaryotic organisms transfer genes laterally (bacterial transformation, transduction and conjugation as well as transposons and other mobile genetic elements); hybridization and divergence with gene flow in sexually-reproducing individuals; current (human) microbiome and viriome studies that impact our knowledge concerning the evolution of organismal health and acquired immunity; and how symbiosis and symbiogenesis can be modelled in computational evolution.

Download or read book Super Organic Evolution written by Enrique Lluria and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Super-Organic Evolution: Nature and the Social Problem Dr Lluria has been so good as to class me as an expert in matters of sociology, and has invited me to express my opinion on the present work, which treats of the anthropological causes of the so-called social question. Such a request places me in considerable difficulty, since, not being conversant with the science created by A. Comte, and developed by H. Spencer, I have studied very little, or rather I have not had time to study, the moral and intellectual evolution of man, considered in relation to society and the State. A worker bee of the great human hive, I have confined myself chiefly to gathering honey in the garden of Nature, in order to build my small individual cell, leaving others, with the eagle's vision and powers of concentration, to trace the perspective and found the philosophy of a common labour, marking the future routes of the human swarm.

Book The New Evolutionary Sociology

Download or read book The New Evolutionary Sociology written by Jonathan Turner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, evolutionary analysis was overlooked or altogether ignored by sociologists. Fears and biases persisted nearly a century after Auguste Comte gave the discipline its name, as did concerns that its effect would only reduce sociology to another discipline – whether biology, psychology, or economics. Worse, apprehension that the application of evolutionary theory would encourage heightened perceptions of racism, sexism, ethnocentrism and reductionism pervaded. Turner and Machalek argue instead for a new embrace of biology and evolutionary analysis. Sociology, from its very beginnings in the early 19th century, has always been concerned with the study of evolution, particularly the transformation of societies from simple to ever-more complex forms. By comprehensively reviewing the original ways that sociologists applied evolutionary theory and examining the recent renewal and expansion of these early approaches, the authors confront the challenges posed by biology, neuroscience, and psychology to distinct evolutionary approaches within sociology. They emerge with key theoretical and methodological discoveries that demonstrate the critical – and compelling – case for a dramatically enriched sociology that incorporates all forms of comparative evolutionary analysis to its canon and study of sociocultural phenomena.

Download or read book Superorganic Evolution written by Santiago Ramon y Cajal and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay by the Spanish Nobel Laureate, Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1852-1934), is a tour-de-force vision on the present and future of humanity. It constitutes a preface to a book by the Cuban physician-sociologist, Enrique Florencio Lluria (1863-1925). In "Superorganic Evolution," the relation of sociology to the natural sciences is at the epicenter. Cajal's preface became popular with the anarchist and the socialist press and was reprinted many times, in Spanish, between 1905 and 1996. It is presented here in an updated English translation, with an editorial annotation."
