About the book >.>.> The Society for the Study of Human Biology Symposium on Long-Term Consequences of Early Environments, held on April 9-10, 1994 at the Pauling Centre, University of Oxford, considered the recent developments in the study of the ways in which early environmental factors can influence human individuals and populations across their lifespan. The topic was examined in a systematic manner by human biologists, auxologists, epidemiologists, anthropologists, physiologists and nutritionists, and the papers discussed at this meeting are published in this volume. For the past 30 years, human population biology has sought to document and explain processes that have contributed to biological variability in the human species. In particular, it has become clear that the effects of environment upon the genotype are rarely simple, and often not immediately apparent. Environmental effects on human physical and psychological development are considerable and well documented, but the long-term consequences and phenotypic expre.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The early environment in which we grow up has profound, long lasting, and often irreversible consequences for us throughout our lives. Stresses due to under nutrition in early childhood can mean that in adulthood individuals are smaller, more prone to disease, and have a shorter life expectancy than those with normal diets. Disease and poor living conditions in infancy and childhood also have profound implications in adulthood. Whilst environmental effects on human growth and development are well documented, the long-term consequences due to processes taking place at the early stages of growth and development have only in past years become a focus of intense study. In this volume, first published in 1996, leading researchers in nutrition, epidemiology, human biology, anthropology and physiology bring together a uniquely accessible source of information on this fascinating topic.
