"Human Biogeography, is an outstanding publication that serves as an unrivaled synthesis and nexus of two disciplines - human diversity and biogeography. --Mark Lomolino, co-author of Biogeography"This is the first book to explain and illustrate what human biogeography is all about. Moreover, Human Biogeography gives us a highly persuasive demonstration that anyone looking for answers about our diversity as a species and our impact on the planet must take biogeography into account. An outstanding work of scholarship supported by an immense depth and breadth of knowledge. " --John Edward Terrell, Regenstein Curator of Pacific Anthropology, Field Museum of Natural History
Klappentext zu „Human Biogeography “
Among animals, humans demonstrate an unusual pattern of widespread spatial distribution combined with relative genetic homogeneity. Harcourt reviews our understanding of how we came to occupy so many environments, how environmental factors have influenced human anatomy and physiology (including implications for diet and medical issues), and how biogeography has influenced human interaction among cultures and with other species. He considers the degree to which climate determined, directed, or delayed our spread around the globe and why our anatomy, physiology, cultural diversity, and population density vary between regions. This is an innovative scholarly work that serves to inform and integrate the fields of biological anthropology and biogeography.
