My Thoughts on Biological Evolution

af Motoo Kimura ...

Oversat af Yoshio Tateno, Kenichi Aoki ...

Serier serie Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
This book, written by Motoo Kimura (1924–94), is a classic in evolutionary biology. In 1968, Kimura proposed the “neutral theory of molecular evolution”, which became the theoretical basis of modern evolutionary studies.

Food and Human Evolution

How Ancestral Diets Shaped Our Minds and Bodies

af Berman Hudson ...

Food has played a major role in human evolution. The fact that we stand upright, that we can talk, that we have big brains; even traits such as altruism and a sense of fairness—all of these can be attributed largely to the kinds of food our ancestors ate and how they acquired it. When our hominid ancestors learned to make stone weapons, it enabling them to kill and butcher large animals. Eating ... Læs mere
