The Primate Origins of Human Nature (Foundation of Human Biology)

Carel P. van Schaik

4.5/5 ( ratings)

The Primate Origins of Human Nature blends several elements from evolutionary biology as applied to primate behavioral ecology and primate psychology, classical physical anthropology and evolutionary psychology of humans. However, unlike similar books, it strives to define the human species relative to our living and extinct relatives, and thus highlights uniquely derived human features. The book features a truly multi-disciplinary, multi-theory, and comparative species approach to subjects not usually presented in textbooks focused on humans, such as the evolution of culture, life history, parenting, and social organization.

Pages: 503

Format: Kindle Edition
