Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This special symposium volume of the SSHB explores the biological effects of human isolation and migration, and how the situations to which they give rise help to elucidate a variety of biological problems, ranging from evolutionary change to disease etiology.
