Animal herding (or pastoralism) is a vanishing way of life that has been practised worldwide. The Human Biology of Pastoralist Populations is the first volume to examine systematically the biology and health of pastoral groups as opposed to the social, cultural and economic dimensions of the pastoralist way of life. Written by leading researchers in biological anthropology, human biology, demography and human genetics, it will be of broad appeal to scholars in both the biological and social sciences.Read More

  • Product Description

    The Human Biology of Pastoral Populations draws together the current knowledge of the biology, population structure, and ecology of herding populations. It investigates how pastoral populations adapt to limited and variable food availability, the implications of the herding way of life for reproductive patterns, population structure and genetic diversity, and the impacts of ongoing social and ecological changes on the health and well-being of these populations. This volume will be of broad interest to scholars in anthropology, human biology, genetics, and demography.
