Product Description
An anthropological, evolutionary, and biocultural perspective of the study and interpretation of human growth. He provides a synthesis of the forces shaping its evolution, the biocultural factors directing its expression, the intrinsic and extrinsic factors regulating individual development, and biomathematical approaches needed to analyze and interpret human growth. Professor Bogin discusses the history, basic principles, and evolution of the pattern of human growth. He gives a comprehensive explanation for human growth in terms of its functional and adaptive significance, genetic and endocrine factors, and its mathematical and biological models. Finally, he presents a new model of growth regulation that combines quantitative elements from mathematics, molecular biology, and neuroendocrine physiology.
