FORMATHardcover LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description In this book, Benoît Dubreuil explores the creation and destruction of hierarchies in human evolution. Combining the methods of archaeology, anthropology, cognitive neuroscience and primatology, he offers a natural history of hierarchies from the point of view of both cultural and biological evolution. This volume explains why dominance hierarchies typical of primate societies disappeared in the human lineage and why the emergence of large-scale societies during the Neolithic period implied increased social differentiation, the creation of status hierarchies, and, eventually, political centralisation. Author Biography Benoît Dubreuil is a postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Philosophy of the Université du Québec à Montréal. His work on moral philosophy and philosophy of science has been published in Biology and Philosophy, Philosophical Explorations, Philosophy of the Social Sciences, and Review of Philosophy and Psychology.

Long Description The second novel in the DI Sean Corrigan series authentic and terrifying crime fiction with a psychological edge, by an ex-Met detective. Perfect for fans of Mark Billingham, Peter James and Stuart MacBride. DI Sean Corrigan is different to most cops. He's no psychic, but his own dark past has given him the ability to step into a crime scene and see it through the eyes of the offender. He understands what drives a person to commit murder, rape, arson but sometimes his gift seems more like a burden. When the brutally murdered body of a young woman is found in the woods, Corrigan and his team are on the case. But this is not the act of a one-time offender. They're on the trail of someone who has been taking women from their homes and keeping them captive before disposing of their bodies. This killer is looking for the perfect woman and when he finds her, he's going to keep her. Whether she likes it or not… Promotional "Headline" Beno Description for Bookstore Beno Description for Library Beno Details ISBN0521769485 Short Title HUMAN EVOLUTION & THE ORIGINS Publisher Cambridge University Press Language English ISBN-10 0521769485 ISBN-13 9780521769488 Media Book Format Hardcover Year 2010 Imprint Cambridge University Press Subtitle The State of Nature Place of Publication Cambridge Country of Publication United Kingdom DEWEY 599.938 Publication Date 2010-09-06 UK Release Date 2010-09-06 AU Release Date 2010-09-06 NZ Release Date 2010-09-06 Illustrations 5 Tables, unspecified; 7 Halftones, unspecified; 6 Line drawings, unspecified Author Benoît Dubreuil Pages 288 Alternative 9780511780035 Audience Professional & Vocational We've got thisAt The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.With fast shipping, low prices, friendly service and well over a million items - you're bound to find what you want, at a price you'll love!
