Review

Review of the hardback: 'This volume shows how far research in this area has come in the last few decades ... This book is an excellent addition to the literature on growth and development, and a long overdue examination of our own genus's growth and development.' Osteoarchaeology

Book Description

If the earliest human ancestors grew more like apes than like humans today, when, how and why did our modern growth patterns evolve? This book focuses on species within the genus Homo to investigate the evolutionary origins of characteristic human patterns and rates of craniofacial and postcranial growth and development.
