Evolution's Bite pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

Whether we realize it or not, we carry in our mouths the legacy of our evolution. Our teeth are like living fossils that can be studied and compared to those of our ancestors to teach us how we became human. In Evolution's Bite, noted paleoanthropologist Peter Ungar brings together for the first time cutting-edge advances in understanding human evolution and climate change with new approaches to uncovering dietary clues from fossil teeth to present a remarkable investigation into the ways that teeth—their shape, chemistry, and wear—reveal how we came to be.

Ungar describes how a tooth's "foodprints"—distinctive patterns of microscopic wear and tear—provide telltale details about what an animal actually ate in the past. These clues, combined with groundbreaking research in paleoclimatology, demonstrate how a changing climate altered the food options available to our ancestors, what Ungar calls the biospheric buffet. When diets change, species change, and Ungar traces how diet and an unpredictable climate determined who among our ancestors was winnowed out and who survived, as well as why we transitioned from the role of forager to farmer. By sifting through the evidence—and the scars on our teeth—Ungar makes the important case for what might or might not be the most natural diet for humans.

Traveling the four corners of the globe and combining scientific breakthroughs with vivid narrative, Evolution's Bite presents a unique dental perspective on our astonishing human development.

唯一的共識,就是答案並不簡單。 一本關於人類起源的書,講述瞭古人類學傢針對牙齒和飲食這一條脈絡研究人類如何進化的曆程。 如同偵探,人類學傢利用古生物學、生物學以及材料科學研究化石(尤其是骨頭和牙齒),研究地質、氣候,將雪泥鴻爪一樣散亂的綫索聯係成一幅進化的框...

我被標題騙瞭,確切地說是被看到標題後的自我臆想騙瞭。 本以為會是像《腸子的小心思》或者《乳房》那樣的趣味科普,所以開開心心的報名瞭這次活動。結果翻完第二章發現事情並沒有那麼簡單,我高估瞭自己這方麵的知識儲備和理解能力,各種專業學科的幾十個專傢學者的故事對我展...
