The first edition is a seminal work on dental morphology. Now revised and updated to include developments in the field, this synthesis of the global variation in tooth structure in recent human populations is invaluable for students of dental anthropology, bioarchaeology, forensic anthropology, paleoanthropology, dentistry, and genetics. ‘This is the second edition of The Anthropology of Modern Human Teeth: Dental Morphology and its Variation in Recent Human Populations (1997). Scott and Turner, authors of the first edition, studied dental variants and the two major patterns of Mongoloid dental variation, Sundadont and Sinodont, were described. Their dental trait evaluation system, the ASUDAS (Arizona State University Dental Anthropology System), has become an essential tool for dental anthropological researchers worldwide. In the first edition, morphological variations in dental traits were described. In the second edition, the ontogenetic, genetic and evolutionary aspects of these traits have also been covered. The authors also describe how advances in dental studies will become even more dramatic over the next twenty

Cornell University, New York

Offering a portrait of the social behavior and conservation status of our nearest primate relatives, this book summarizes findings from seven long-term field studies. The chapters cover a range of behaviors, from cooperative lethal aggression to communication and culture, making it an ideal resource for both students and researchers. ‘… the first book to compile the available information about field studies of wild chimpanzees. To do so has required an immense effort on the part of the author, Adam Clark Arcadi. The long-term field studies at Gombe, Kibale, Budongo, Mahale, Bossou, and Tai, together with a large number of shorter term studies, are synthesised on a topic by topic basis. This gives the reader an overall perspective of wild chimpanzees which has hitherto been lacking. We see many features of behaviour and social organisation that all chimps have in common. And we also see ecological and cultural differences between different chimp communities across Africa. … a good book for all those seeking to understand our closest relatives in the animal kingdom: undergraduates in particular will benefit from this synthesis of all that is known at the present time. [Simultaneously], the author writes well so his book is accessible to the general reader.’ Vernon Reynolds, University of Oxford

Primate Tourism

The Mandrill

A Tool for Conservation? Edited by Anne E. Russon Glendon College, York University

A Case of Extreme Sexual Selection Alan F. Dixson

and Janette Wallis

Victoria University of Wellington

Kasokwa Forest Project, Uganda

Living in the remote forests of western central Africa, mandrills are notoriously elusive and have evaded scientific scrutiny for decades. Recent research, synthesised here for the first time, sheds light on mandrill behaviour, reproductive biology and evolution, and allows for explanation of its extreme sexual dimorphism.

Presenting assessments on the impact of tourism to primates, this book weighs its conservation costs and benefits, offering suggestions for improving its conservation benefits in view of the many primates facing extinction and tourism growth. Written for conservationists and scientists, it is also relevant to tourists and tourism professionals. ‘Primate Tourism gives an excellent overview of the experiences with primate tourism, the positive and negative effects, and it provides recommendations for the solution of the problems.’ Gorilla Journal

‘This excellent and well-researched book offers new insights for students and experts alike, and is sure to overturn common assumptions about this enigmatic primate. It is an impressive contribution and essential reading for anyone interested in animal behavior and primatology.’ Charles Nunn, Duke University, North Carolina

Evolutionary Anthropology

Injury and Trauma in Bioarchaeology Interpreting Violence in Past Lives Rebecca C. Redfern Museum of London

This book provides a critical examination of the sources of social science, clinical and archaeological evidence that bioarchaeologists use to study injury in past communities. Redfern explores the consequences of violence in a bioarchaeological context, highlighting how its evidence can shed new light on the hierarchies and social relationships of past societies. ‘With Injury and Trauma in Bioarchaeology Redfern skilfully illustrates the potential of a truly bio-cultural approach to the skeletal record. Her interdisciplinary analysis, elegantly integrating knowledge and insights from medicine, social science and ecology, conveys the evolution and diversity of interpersonal violence on a global scale. Rich in exemplary case studies and illustrations, the volume takes us beyond the ‘when’, ‘where’ and ‘how’ to a genuine appreciation of the varied experience of past violence and its impact on the individual, those close to them and society as a whole. This insight into past lives is instructive and affecting in equal measure, setting a new benchmark for violence studies.’ Linda Fibiger, University of Edinburgh 2016 247 x 174 mm 340pp 20 b/w illus. 12 tables 978-0-521-11573-5 Hardback £49.99 / US$74.99 For all formats available, see

TEXTBOOK

Stone Tools in Human Evolution Behavioral Differences among Technological Primates John J. Shea Stony Brook University, State University of New York

This book explains in simple, straightforward terms what stone tools are, how and why they vary, and what that variability means for human evolution. It is a book about stone tools written for students and for nonarchaeologists by an expert at making, using, and analyzing stone tools. ‘A useful counterbalance to hidebound Paleolithic systematics, Stone Tools in Human Evolution implements a better-grounded descriptive approach. It shows a way forward and therefore deserves close study.’ Current Anthropology 2017 253 x 177 mm 306pp 51 b/w illus. 26 tables 978-1-107-12309-0 Hardback £82.00 / US$122.00 978-1-107-55493-1 Paperback £26.99 / US$35.99 For all formats available, see

Evolutionary Anthropology

What Teeth Reveal about Human Evolution Debbie Guatelli-Steinberg Ohio State University

This book shows what fossil hominin teeth can tell us about human evolution, integrating the latest research insights with current debates and issues in palaeoanthropology. Written in an accessible style, it will appeal to students and researchers in the fields of biological anthropology, evolutionary biology, palaeontology, dental science and oral biology. ‘This is an extensively researched and well-written – not to mention much-needed – book on the unsung heroes of human paleontology: teeth. … The author obviously has done her homework and the references in the book are as up to date as they can be in a constantly changing field. I even found some references that I had not yet read and so I learned something, too. This is an informative read for anyone interested in teeth and/or human evolution. The fact that it is clearly written will make it accessible to general readers. But it also provides enough detail, not to mention an extensive literature review, to make it useful for students entering the field of paleoanthropology.’ Shara E.

EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY The Quest for a Universal Theory of Life

19

Evolution in Isolation

Searching for Life As We Don’t Know It Carol E. Cleland University of Colorado Boulder

Explores the nature, origin, and extent of life in the universe from both scientific and philosophical perspectives, focusing particularly on the challenge of formulating a universal theory of life in relation to the search for extraterrestrial life. It is a valuable resource for those studying astrobiology and the origins of life. ‘What is life? What universal principles apply to any biosphere? Our efforts to answer these deep questions are stymied because of our biased, Earth-bound perspective with only one kind of (known) life. In a book rich with original ideas and lucid insights, science philosopher Carol E. Cleland considers life from the perspective of what we don’t know – the limitations, hidden biases, sloppy definitions, and false assumptions that may lead us astray. From ‘shadow biospheres’ on Earth, to artificial life in the lab, to alien lifeforms in distant galaxies, Cleland expands our minds and leads us to rethink what we thought we knew.’ Robert Hazen, Carnegie Institution for Science, Washington Cambridge Astrobiology, 11

The Search for an Island Syndrome in Plants Kevin C. Burns Victoria University of Wellington

By providing a thorough review of the quantitative evidence for repeated patterns in the evolution of island plants, this book establishes whether plants display an ‘island syndrome’ similar to animals. It will be of particular interest to graduate students as well as practising researchers in botany, biogeography, ecology and evolution. ‘Kevin C. Burns has provided a beautifully written, well-paced and enjoyable review of island syndromes. He opens with a focus on some iconic animals, which he deploys to highlight the challenges involved in building on initial ‘natural history’ observations, to develop and then rigorously examine clear hypotheses of how evolution in isolation favours particular functional traits and syndromes. The following five chapters set out to review specific plant syndromes, each of which is clearly described, illustrated with examples (and some well selected figures), carefully considered and then rounded off with a clear set of conclusions. Burns succeeds in putting together a rigorous synthesis of existing information on island plant syndromes. Any student of island biology, from undergraduates to seasoned researchers will be sure to find something of interest in this book.’ Robert J. Whittaker, University of Oxford

Introduces a wide range of scientific and philosophical issues about life for an interdisciplinary audience of scientists and philosophers. It traces the historical background of contemporary philosophical and scientific thought through original sources considering the origin, extent and definition of life as well as the creation of artificial life. ‘Editing a book of this kind always entails a risk because the particular professional interests and idiosyncrasies of the editors will affect the choice of contributions. However, I believe that the multifarious and matching interests of the editors were instrumental in producing an up-to-date and complete collection that will help the student of biology and philosophy alike.

Human Evolution beyond Biology and Culture Evolutionary Social, Environmental and Policy Sciences Jeroen C. J. M. van den Bergh Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona

Offers a close to complete view on topics that have been addressed from an evolutionary angle, with a focus on social science. A broad readership, including academics from natural to social sciences, and a general audience, are guaranteed to find a lot to their taste in the book. ‘This is a timely book, helping us to move out of equilibrium-based approaches that served well in the twentieth century towards a view of the contemporary world as complex, dynamic, emergent and evolutionary. Jeroen C. J. M. van den Bergh invites the reader into an exciting adventure applying an evolutionary approach to social, environmental and policy sciences. In an impressive manner, the book collects theoretical and empirical insights from diverse fields on the role of evolutionary thinking in understanding and acting on all kinds of real-world complex systems and their dynamics. But the book is more than a comprehensive synthesis, it is visionary and talks about evolutionary policies and transitions towards sustainability, innovations to curb climate change, reconnecting to the biosphere, as well as possible evolutionary futures for the human population.

What Science Is and How It Really Works James C. Zimring University of Virginia

What is the basis of scientific claims? How much confidence should we put in them? What is defined as science and what is not? This timely synthesis conveys the strengths, weaknesses and reality of science to inform the general reader and help professional scientists articulate what they do and why. ‘We live in a world where the discoveries of well-done science are rapidly improving the lives of millions; but at the same time poorly done inquiry that fails to meet the foundational principles of science, even when carried out with all good intentions, can result in harmful false conclusions resulting in wasting of resources, bad results for individuals and bad public policy for nations. Dr Zimring has produced a marvelously cogent and eminently readable book that explains how to recognize good science and know when to question poor ‘scientific’ conclusions. Reading this book places scientists and non-scientists on the same playing field when discussing critical issues and making important decisions. I would feel much better going to the polls if every voter understood the lessons that Zimring effortlessly communicates.’ Brian R.

Cover The Bus del Budrio cave in northern Italy is home to the threatened planarian Dendrocoelum italicum. The first survey of this flatworm since its description 79 years earlier revealed that the underground stream supplying water to the pool from which the species was first described had been diverted, severely reducing the available habitat for the species. In the first habitat restoration performed in a cave for the conservation of a flatworm, the water-diverting structure was removed, resulting in the restoration of a large, stable pool inside the cave. This created an optimal habitat for the species, with increased availability of prey and a stable population. For further details, see pp. 216–221. (Photograph © Luana Aimar).
