Inhaltsangabe

Graber (anthropology and sociology, Northeast Missouri State U.) presents a generalized model of the human sociocultural evolution from a large number of tiny foraging bands to a small number of populous states. The process involves the simultaneous change of several related quantities and so must be mathematical in nature, but Graber shows how it can be expressed and understood without mathematical equations and in terms familiar to anthropologists.
