Big Questions In Ecology And Evolution written by Thomas N. Sherratt and has been published by OUP Oxford this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009-02-20 with Social Science categories.

Why do we age? Why cooperate? Why do so many species engage in sex? Why do the tropics have so many species? When did humans start to affect world climate? This book provides an introduction to a range of fundamental questions that have taxed evolutionary biologists and ecologists for decades. Some of the phenomena discussed are, on first reflection, simply puzzling to understand from an evolutionary perspective, whilst others have direct implications for the future of the planet. All of the questions posed have at least a partial solution, all have seen exciting breakthroughs in recent years, yet many of the explanations continue to be hotly debated. Big Questions in Ecology and Evolution is a curiosity-driven book, written in an accessible way so as to appeal to a broad audience. It is very deliberately not a formal text book, but something designed to transmit the excitement and breadth of the field by discussing a number of major questions in ecology and evolution and how they have been answered. This is a book aimed at informing and inspiring anybody with an interest in ecology and evolution. It reveals to the reader the immense scope of the field, its fundamental importance, and the exciting breakthroughs that have been made in recent years.

Evolution And The Big Questions written by David N. Stamos and has been published by Wiley-Blackwell this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2008-02-11 with Philosophy categories.

In this book David Stamos wants to question whether and to what extent evolutionary biology shines light on the big questions debated in the humanities and social sciences. The main theme in the book is the debate between evolutionary explanations and what has come to be known as the Standard Social Science Model. This model is a way of looking at human nature that is commonly found in sociology, behaviorism in psychology, cultural anthropology, Marxism, women's studies, and gay studies. Stamos examines topics of race, sex, gender, the nature of language, religion, ethics, knowledge, consciousness and ultimately, the meaning of life from different perspectives.
