Описание:
Human Molecular Genetics has been carefully crafted over successive editions to provide an authoritative introduction to the molecular aspects of human genetics, genomics and cell biology.
Maintaining the features that have made previous editions so popular, this fifth edition has been completely updated in line with the latest developments in the field. Older technologies such as cloning and hybridization have been merged and summarized, coverage of newer DNA sequencing technologies has been expanded, and powerful new gene editing and single-cell genomics technologies have been added. The coverage of GWAS, functional genomics, stem cells, and disease modeling has been expanded. Greater focus is given to inheritance and variation in the context of populations and on the role of epigenetics in gene regulation.
Key features:
Fully integrated approach to the molecular aspects of human genetics, genomics, and cell biology
Accessible text is supported and enhanced throughout by superb artwork illustrating the key concepts and mechanisms
Summary boxes at the end of each chapter provide clear learning points
Annotated further reading helps readers navigate the wealth of additional information in this complex subject and provides direction for further study
Reorganized into five sections for improved access to related topics
Also new to this edition - brand new chapter on evolution and anthropology from the authors of the highly acclaimed Human Evolutionary Genetics
A proven and popular textbook for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, the new edition of Human Molecular Genetics remains the 'go-to' book for those studying human molecular genetics or genomics courses around the world.

Автор: Peter H. Rhys Evans Название: The Waterside Ape: An Alternative Account of Human Evolution ISBN: 0367145480 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780367145484 Издательство: Taylor&Francis Рейтинг: Цена: 4133.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: This book presents evidence for the controversial `Waterside Ape` theory of human origins formerly known as the `Aquatic Ape` theory. The `Savannah Ape` hypothesis that hominid apes evolved on the grass plains of East Africa has been long-accepted based on geological and fossil evidence. Recent scientific evidence discredites this hypothesis.

Описание: Synthesising the very latest research, this comprehensive account of deep-sea fishes covers evolution, physiology and ecology as well as the history of their discovery. Priede provides a global account of both pelagic and demersal species and, crucially, considers the effect of the growing deep-sea fishing industry on sustainability.
Автор: Blurton Jones Название: Demography and Evolutionary Ecology of Hadza Hunter-Gatherers ISBN: 1107069823 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781107069824 Издательство: Cambridge Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 16315.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: Blurton Jones interweaves data from ecology, demography and evolutionary ecology to present a comprehensive analysis of the Hadza tribe. Discussion centres on expansion of the adaptationist perspective beyond topics customarily studied in human behavioural ecology, to interpret a wider range of anthropological concepts.

Описание: Chronic diseases have rapidly become the leading global cause of morbidity and mortality, yet there is poor understanding of this transition, or why particular social and ethnic groups are especially susceptible. In this book, Wells adopts a multidisciplinary approach to human nutrition, emphasising how power relations shape the physiological pathways to obesity, diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Part I reviews the physiological basis of chronic diseases, presenting a 'capacity-load' model that integrates the nutritional contributions of developmental experience and adult lifestyle. Part II presents an evolutionary perspective on the sensitivity of human metabolism to ecological stresses, highlighting how social hierarchy impacts metabolism on an intergenerational timescale. Part III reviews how nutrition has changed over time, as societies evolved and coalesced towards a single global economic system. Part IV integrates these physiological, evolutionary and politico-economic perspectives in a unifying framework, to deepen our understanding of the societal basis of metabolic ill-health.

Описание: A broad, multidisciplinary account of how human societies have evolved power relations that shape the fundamental relationship between nutrition and health. Appealing to academics in a variety of disciplines, in addition to graduates and policy makers, this book will address nutritional transitions over time and the epidemic of chronic disease.

Описание: This book provides a comparison of the genetic circuits of Homo sapiens and Drosophila melanogaster to reveal the evidence for deep homology, from the field of evolutionary developmental biology. Individual body parts including the nervous system, limbs and heart are compared in chapters that also feature concept maps and encyclopaedic tables to aid learning.
