English. Hardcover 18.5x25.7cm Paper book paper Color cover Black and white content New, Description: In this important book of popular science, Daniel E. Lieberman "chairman of the department of human evolutionary biology at Harvard university and a leader in its field" gives us a clear and interesting explanation of how the human body evolved over millions of years, even when it showed how the increasing difference between the mixes Adaptations in our stone age body and progress in the modern world led to this paradox: Greater longevity but increased chronic illness. Human body stories brightly illuminate unprecedented major transformations that contribute to key adaptations to the body: The emergence of bipedalism; the shift to non-fruit diet; the emergence of hunting and gathering, leading to our athletic superlative endurance; very large brain development; and the beginning of cultural prowess. Lieberman also explains how cultural evolution differs from biological evolution, and how our bodies are further altered during the agricultural and industrial revolutions. While this ongoing change has brought many benefits, they have also created conditions in which our bodies are not fully adapted, Lieberman argues, resulting in increased incidents of obesity and new diseases but can be avoided, such as type 2 diabetes. Lieberman proposes that many of these chronic diseases survive and in some cases increase due to dyssevolution, destructive dynamics where only symptoms rather than causes of the disease are treated. And finally "provocatively" he advocated the use of evolutionary information to help encourage, encourage, and sometimes even force us to create a healthier environment.
