Somatotyping Development Applicatns: Development and Applications (Cambridge Studies in Biological And Evolutionary Anthropology, 5, Band 5) - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
Somatotyping is a method of description and assessment of the body on three shape and composition scales: endomorphy (relative fatness), mesomorphy (relative musculoskeletal robustness), and ectomorphy (relative linearity). This book (the first major account of the field for thirty years) presents a comprehensive history of somatotyping, beginning with W. J. Sheldon's introduction of the method in 1940. The controversies regarding the validity of Sheldon's method are described, as are the various attempts to modify the technique, particularly the Heath-Carter method, which has come into widespread use. The book reviews present knowledge of somatotypes around the world, how they change with growth, ageing and exercise, and the contributions of genetics and environment to the rating. Also reviewed are the relationships between somatotypes and sport, physical performance, health and behaviour. Students and research workers in human biology, physical and biological anthropology and physical education will all find valuable information in this book.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Kathryn Carter was an only child who grew up with an exciting love of life and a vivid imagination in Sydney Australia between 1983 and 2003. She loved to write, even from an early age, and tell stories. The book tries to capture her writing life but also captures a period in time before iPads, iPhones and computers took up such a large chunk of our lives.Kathryn wanted to be an actor, a writer, a producer, an artist and a critic. She was a wonderful daughter and a good friend. Her life was cut short by illness but she is remembered.
