Kappelman's PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY LAB MANUAL offers a focused sampling of laboratory exercises that range across the breadth of the discipline, from examples of heredity and evolution to primate behavior, the fossil record of apes and early humans, and questions about human biology that are linked to environmental change. Exercises are designed with a succinct focus on particular problems, and the labs follow a fixed format with the introduction of a problem followed by the collection of data that are in turn used to test and evaluate the hypothesis. Students who complete the labs will greatly expand their knowledge of physical anthropology.

OTHER ARTICLES Since the time of the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus the man credited for the discovery of the new world, the new comers to the world have observed and documented the things which they seen, heard and experienced. The new comers to this world saw the ruins of what appeared as intricately built ancient cities, observed strange yet familiar habits of the indigenous. It wasn't until the mid 19th century that archaeology was even taken serious in this land, yet it would seem as though it was not for the purpose of documentation and understanding of those of the past. 100 years or so earlier Sir Richard Colt Hoare coined the motto for Antiquarianism in Europe, We Speak from Facts not Theory and it would seem here in...

  Who We Are and How We Got Here: Ancient DNA and the New Science of the Human Past Who We Are and How We Got Here: Ancient DNA and the New Science of the Human Past OTHER ARTICLES A groundbreaking book about how ancient DNA has profoundly changed our understanding of human history. Geneticists like David Reich have made astounding advances in the field of genomics, which is proving to be as important as archeology, linguistics, and written records as a means to understand our ancestry.  In Who We Are and How We Got Here, Reich allows readers to discover how the human genome provides not only all the information a human embryo needs to develop but also the hidden story of our species. Reich delves into how the genomic revolution is transforming our understanding of modern humans and how DNA studies reveal deep inequalities among different populations, between the sexes, and among individuals. Provocatively, Reich’s book suggests that there might very well be biological differences ...

  Supernatural and Natural Selection: Religion and Evolutionary Success (Studies in Comparative Social Science) Supernatural and Natural Selection: Religion and Evolutionary Success (Studies in Comparative Social Science) OTHER ARTICLES Spanning many different epochs and varieties of religious experience, this book develops a new approach to religion and its role in human history. The authors look across a range of religious phenomena-from ancestor worship to totemism, shamanism, and worldwide modern religions-to offer a new explanation of the evolutionary success of religious behaviors. Their book is more empirical and verifiable than most previous books on evolution and religion because they develop an approach that removes guesswork about beliefs in the supernatural, focusing instead on the behaviors of individuals. The result is a pioneering look at how and why natural selection has favored religious behaviors throughout history.
