PDF-(DOWNLOAD)-On Human Nature: The Biology and Sociology of What Made Us Human (Evolutionary

In this book Jonathan H Turner combines sociology evolutionary biology cladistic analysis from biology and comparative neuroanatomy to examine human nature as it was inherited from common ancestors shared by humans and presentday great apes Selection pressures altered this inherited legacy for the ancestors of humanstermed hominins for being bipedaland forced greater organization than extant great apes when the hominins moved into open country terrestrial habitats The effects of these selection pressures increased hominin ancestors emotional capacities through greater social and group orientation This shift in turn enabled further selection for a larger brain articulated speech and culture along the human line Turner elaborates human nature as a series of overlapping complexes that are the outcome of the inherited legacy of great apes being fed through the transforming effects of a larger brain speech and culture These complexes he shows can be understood as the cognitive complex the psychological complex the emotions complex the interaction complex and the community complex.

Temperament, Heredity, and Personality. This comprehensive synthesis of current medical and evolutionary literature addresses key questions about the role body fat plays in human biology. It explores how body energy stores are regulated, how they develop over the life-course, what biological functions they serve, and how they may have evolved. There is now substantial evidence that human adiposity is not merely a buffer against the threat of starvation, but is also a resource for meeting the energy costs of growth, reproduction and immune function. As such it may be considered as important in our species evolution as other traits such as bipedalism, large brains, and long life spans and developmental periods. Indeed, adiposity is integrally linked with these other traits, and with our capacity to colonise and inhabit diverse ecosystems. It is because human metabolism is so sensitive to environmental cues that manipulative economic forces are now generating the current obesity epidemic. This book provides a synthetic overview of all evidence concerning the evolution of the morphology of the human pelvis, including comparative anatomy, clinical and experimental studies, and quantitative evolutionary models. By integrating these lines of research, this is the first book to bring all sources of evidence together to develop a coherent statement about the current state of the art in understanding pelvic evolution. Second, and related to this, the volume is the first detailed assessment of existing paradigms about the evolution of the pelvis, especially the obstetric dilemma. The authors argue that there are many \'dilemmas\', but these must be approached using a testable methodology, rather than on the proviso of a single paradigm. The volume clearly contributes to greater scientific knowledge about human variation and evolution, and has implications for clinicians working within reproductive health. A thought-provoking read for students, researchers and professionals in the fields of biological anthropology, human evolutionary anthropology, paleoanthropology, bioarchaeology, biology, developmental biology and obstetrics.
