Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Life and Evolution' is a comprehensive exploration of the fundamental principles of biology and the mechanisms driving the natural world. Written by renowned zoologist S. J. Holmes, this work serves as an accessible yet scholarly introduction to the concepts of organic evolution, heredity, and the diversity of life forms. The text delves into the evidence supporting evolutionary theory, examining how species adapt and change over time through the processes of natural selection and genetic inheritance.Throughout the book, Holmes provides a clear synthesis of the scientific knowledge of the early 20th century, addressing the physical and chemical basis of life, the intricacies of cellular development, and the complex relationships between organisms and their environments. By bridging the gap between specialized research and general understanding, 'Life and Evolution' offers readers a profound look at the continuity of life and the laws governing biological progression. It remains a significant contribution to the literature of biology, capturing a pivotal moment in the history of scientific thought and providing a structured framework for understanding the origins and development of the living world.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Given the rapidly developing area of evolutionary medicine and public health, The Arc of Life examines ways in which research conducted by biological anthropologists can enrich our understanding of variation in human health outcomes. The book aims not only to showcase the perspective that biological anthropologists bring to the burgeoning field of evolutionary medicine, but to underscore the context of human life history -- especially the concept of evolutionary trade-offs and the ensuing biological processes that can affect health status over the life course. This dual emphasis on life history theory and life cycle biology will make for a valuable and unique, yet complementary, addition to books already available on the subject of evolution and health. The book consolidates diverse lines of research within the field of biological anthropology, stimulates new directions for future research, and facilitates communication between subdisciplines of human biology operating at the forefrontof evolutionary medicine.…
