This concise introduction to biological anthropology discusses the core areas of the discipline within a unique framework modeled on the scientific method. Emphasizing themes and theories, the text presents facts as supportive evidence rather than dissociated pieces of information. Each chapter explores questions that get at the heart of the field, and then reexamines them in the same way that scientists generate and test hypotheses. Designed from its inception as a concise text, Biological Anthropology covers topics in a carefully managed level of detail, and offers examples of the everyday uses of biological anthropology.

Features:


Revised coverage of a wealth of important topics--including evolutionary genetics, genetic drift, phenetic and cladistic taxonomies, evolution of the Early Hominins, and protein synthesis--offers updated and expanded explanations of key concepts in biological anthropology.

An updated companion website provides a wealth of practice exercises and other student and instructor material, including an instructor's manual and PowerPoint presentations.
