Current Anthropology Volume 33, Number 5 complete issue. First edition. The niche-construction approach has been productive in many other studies, such as those that describe culturally driven change at the ecosystem level: for example, the extinction of megafauna after the arrival of humans, the change of broad-scale landscapes as a result of cultivation in early and recent times, and the traditional use of fire as a means to manipulate the environmental dynamics in a way beneficial for humans. Niche construction is also important in understanding the evolutionary dynamics driven by changes in the immediate environment that humans experience, such as via construction of shelters and production of clothing that enabled the expansion of humans into otherwise uninhabitable regions, and the use of fire for food handling, which allowed dramatic changes in subsistence and may even have led to significant change to the anatomy of the human jaw. Condition: Edge wear, corners bumped and rubbed else very good.

ABOUT THIS BOOK: The human brain and its one hundred billion neurons compose the most complex organ in the body and harness more than 20% of all the energy we produce. Why do we have such large and energy-demanding brains, and how have we been able to afford such an expensive organ for thousands of years? Guts and Brains discusses the key variables at stake in such a question, including the relationship between brain size and diet, diet and social organization, and large brains and the human sexual division of labor. Showcasing how small changes in the diet of early hominins came to have large implications for the behavior of modern humans, this interdisciplinary volume provides an entry for the reader into understanding the development of both early primates and our own species.(Publisher).
