A focus on the debates in the field of human evolution (especially the phylogenetic or genealogical debates)- Analyzes four distinct debates, presented separately from their inception to the present: 1) Humankind's place among the primates; 2) The place of the australopithecines relative to the human line; 3) Debates on human phylogeny proper; 4) Proposed scenarios of hominization. Presentation and analysis of the viewpoints of over 150 scholars - Gives students a valuable reference work for the future (includes over 1200 references in the bibliography) as well as a comprehensive text for today.For junior\/senior courses in Human Evolution and Paleoanthropology in Anthropology departments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51665852072224,"sku":"NEW0131773909","price":128.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71Yms87dT1L.jpg?v=1778913787","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/debating-humankinds-place-in-nature-1860-2000-the-nature-of-paleoanthropology-0131773909","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
