 Drawing links between genetic and cultural development, this textbook on human evolution offers students a unique combination of cultural anthropology and genetics. For too long, cultural anthropology and science have been portrayed as antagonistic. The authors believe that this is misguided and that recent findings in genetics and anthropology indicate that, to the contrary, a fruitful analysis of human culture and evolution demands. integration of these fields of study. This text unifies cultural and genetic concepts: Genes, Culture, and Human Evolution demonstrates that empirical genetic evidence, based on modern DNA analysis and population studies, provides an excellent foundation for understanding human cultural diversity.

 In this exciting video with accompanying workbook (which you can purchase as an interactive tool), you will see Marianne and Jerry Corey in action as they demonstrate their integrative approach to group work. As the two-hour video unfolds, viewers will see a real group—not actors role-playing—move through its various stages and will observe group members discuss real issues and present reactions in the group context. The accompanying workbook provides exercises and explorations that link the video to the Coreys’ best selling group books: GROUPS: PROCESS AND PRACTICE, GROUP TECHNIQUES, and THEORY AND PRACTICE OF GROUP COUNSELING (both the textbook and the Student Manual).

 Human Evolutionary Genetics is a revolutionary textbook that combines the study of genetics, anthropology and forensics to provide an understanding of human evolution and population histories. The book is divided into four sections: Section A provides an overview of the subject. Section B starts with an in-depth analysis of the molecular basis of human genetic variation and the mechanisms which give rise to it. It also introduces principles behind the use of molecular genetic data to understand human evolution and population histories. Sections C and D consider the historical evidence of human evolution and the driving forces behind population development and dispersal. Section E looks at the key applications of human evolutionary genetics, including the identification of genes involved in common disorders, immunity and differing reactions to drugs across populations. The book assumes readers have a pre-university knowledge of biology, but has several pedagogical feature ISBN or Category: Unclassified Price when last checked: $110.00 |
 Tel Aviv Univ., Israel. Introductory textbook for beginners in molecular evolution. Describes the dynamics of evolutionary change at the molecular level, the driving forces behind this process, and the effects of the various molecular mechanisms on the long-term evolution of genomes, genes, and their products.

 This textbook provides an introduction to design for function, using many examples of manufactured artifacts and living organisms to demonstrate common themes and fundamental principles. Examples forcefully illustrate the importance of the basic design principles related to material properties, physical principles, and energy expenditure. The author also discusses the relation of aesthetic and functional design, the crucial connection of design to production in artifacts, and reproduction in organisms. The author has thoroughly updated this second edition with more examples and a new chapter with actual design case studies to illustrate key ideas. In addition, the text contains many new exercises that reinforce important points in the text. ISBN or Category: Unclassified Price when last checked: $50.00 |
 In the current era of complete genome sequencing, Bioinformatics and Molecular Evolution provides an up-to-date and comprehensive introduction to bioinformatics in the context of evolutionary biology.

 This wide-ranging textbook provides a broad overview of the current state of animal behavior studies and is ideal for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in biology, experimental psychology and neuroscience. Comprising a series of contributions from international experts, it represents diverse approaches to animal behavior and ranges across the subject at all levels, from molecules and neurons through to individuals and populations. Drawing on the principles formulated by Nobel laureate Niko Tinbergen, the book endorses the view that animal behavior can only be understood through research on four related questions: causation, development, function, and evolution. For this reason, the chapters are organized into sections. The first is devoted to mechanisms, and covers both cause and development. The next section is on function, and covers both survival value and evolution. Finally, there is a section on animal behavior and human society, which deals with animal welfare and conservation.

 The brief length and focused coverage of Human Evolution: An Illustrated Introduction have made this best-selling textbook the ideal complement to any biology or anthropology course in which human evolution is taught. The text places human evolution in the context of humans as animals, while also showing the physical context of human evolution, including climate change and the impact of extinctions. Chapter introductions, numerous drawings and photographs, and an essential glossary all add to the accessibility of this text.The fifth edition has been thoroughly updated to include coverage of the latest discoveries and perspectives, including: · New early hominid fossils from Africa and Georgia, and their implications · New archaeological evidence from Africa on the origin of modern humans · Updated coverage of prehistoric art, including new sites · New perspectives on molecular evidence and their implications for human population history.
