Описание: Echinoid taphonomy biases have often impacted the study of echinoid evolution, diversity, and ecology. This Element reviews morphological features, preservation processes, and taphonomic pathways using recent studies and fossil taxa.
Описание: This Element provides a hypothesis-driven look at testing models for diversification in Cambrian echinoderms, fitting and using a joint tree and diversification model to estimate a dated phylogeny of the Cincta (Echinodermata).
Автор: Renfrew Colin, Morley Iain, Boyd Michael Название: Ritual, Play and Belief, in Evolution and Early Human Societies ISBN: 1316507807 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781316507803 Издательство: Cambridge University Press Рейтинг: Цена: 9771.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: The origins of religion and ritual in humans hold a longstanding fascination, and have been the focus of centuries of thought in archaeology, anthropology, theology, evolutionary psychology and more. Here ritual and the development of human societies are related to the critical human and animal legacy of play and performance.
Описание: Bowler charts developments in thinking about progress using the emergence of Darwinism in biology to throw light on parallel changes in the understanding of social development. He shows how linear models of progress headed toward a final goal have been replaced by open-ended views defined by innovation and diversity.
Описание: This book explains animal anomalies of all kinds. It focuses on development and its physical mechanisms, as well as evolution and its historical perspective. It is intended as a supplement for courses in developmental biology at the undergraduate or graduate level, for specialized seminars, honors classes, and capstone courses.

Описание: Written for students and researchers interested in how primates, including ourselves, evolved, Primate and Human Evolution explores evolutionary anthropology from a broad comparative perspective, and presents a new model of human origins that does not depend solely on global climatic change.
Описание: Fossil crinoids are exceptionally suited to deep-time studies of community paleoecology and niche partitioning. By merging ecomorphological trait and phylogenetic data, this Element summarizes niche occupation and community paleoecology of crinoids from the Bromide fauna of Oklahoma (Sandbian, Upper Ordovician).
Описание: The follow-up companion to The Anthropology of Modern Human Teeth (Cambridge, 1997), this volume focuses on applied dental research. It starts with a cutting-edge section on genetics, and continues with a series of case studies demonstrating the utility of morphological analysis in fossil hominin and more recent populations (and individuals).

Описание: This Element includes time-lapse video made in 1983 on film, followed by recent digital videography from submersibles and remotely operated vehicles of deep-sea crinoids, revealing behaviors in taxa never before seen in life.
Автор: Krause Mark A., Hollis Karen L., Papini Mauricio R. Название: Evolution of Learning and Memory Mechanisms ISBN: 1108487998 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781108487993 Издательство: Cambridge University Press Рейтинг: Цена: 24818.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: Insects, amphibians, fish, birds, rodents, primates, and humans share common learning mechanisms, and have also evolved different responses to unique ecological challenges. This volume explores evolutionary influences on how human and nonhuman animals learn and remember. It features contributions from psychologists, biologists, and neuroscientists.
