图书简介
This wide-ranging and inclusive text provides an invaluable review of topics in human evolution, variation and adaptability. The chapters are organized into four sections, exploring genetic and phenotypic variation, reproduction, growth and development, and evolutionary medicine. Two hundred discussion questions provide starting points for class debate and assignments.
