The Shorter Anthropological Papers of Franz Weidenreich 1939-1948: A Memorial Volume
vii 267 pages with figures tables charts plates and bibliography. Octavo 9" x 5 3/4" bound in original publisher's wrappers. First edition. Franz Weidenreich 7 June 1873 Edenkoben ¿ 11 July 1948 New York City was a Jewish German anatomist and physical anthropologist who studied evolution. Weidenreich studied at the University of Strasbourg where he earned a medical degree in 1899. From 1921 to 1924 he served as a Professor of anthropology at the University of Heidelberg and was a visiting professor at the University of Chicago in 1934. In 1935 he succeeded Canadian paleoanthropologist Davidson Black as honorary director of the Cenozoic Research Laboratory of the Geological Survey of China. Weidenreich was among the scientists to claim that Piltdown Man was a "chimera" a composite between two unrelated species long before fluoride analyses proved that Piltdown Man was a hoax.12 Weidenreich also renamed Gigantopithecus blacki to Giganthropus blacki based on a theory that primitive forms of man were much larger than the more recent ones. However as this theory is contradictory to the Cope-Depéret rule which states that in straight evolution lines of non-flying animals the size of species increases not the other way round it was rejected by Professor Dr. von Koenigswald when he returned from the Japanese concentration camp after the Second World War. As honorary director of the Cenozoic Research Laboratory he also studied fossils of the Peking Man then known as Sinanthropus pekinensis unearthed at Zhoukoudian China. Weidenreich originated the "Weidenreich Theory of Human Evolution" based on his examination of Peking Man. Being an anatomist Weidenreich observed numerous anatomical characteristics that Peking Man had in common with modern Asians this led to his Polycentric evolution model of racial origins. Peter H. Wyden American journalist and writer was one of his nephews. Condition: Previous owner's stamp on front wrapper front heal corners chipped spine sunned and ends chipped else a very good copy.

SHIPMAN PAT
The Invaders: How Humans And Their Dogs Drove Neanderthals To Extinction
Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2015. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. With their large brains sturdy physique sophisticated tools and hunting skills Neanderthals are the closest known relatives to humans. Approximately 200000 years ago as modern humans began to radiate out from their evolutionary birthplace in Africa Neanderthals were already thriving in Europe�descendants of a much earlier migration of the African genus Homo. But when modern humans eventually made their way to Europe 45000 years ago Neanderthals suddenly vanished. Ever since the first Neanderthal bones were identified in 1856 scientists have been vexed by the question why did modern humans survive while their evolutionary cousins went extinct The Invaders musters compelling evidence to show that the major factor in the Neanderthals' demise was direct competition with newly arriving humans. Drawing on insights from the field of invasion biology which predicts that the species ecologically closest to the invasive predator will face the greatest competition Pat Shipman traces the devastating impact of a growing human population: reduction of Neanderthals' geographic range isolation into small groups and loss of genetic diversity. But modern humans were not the only invaders who competed with Neanderthals for big game. Shipman reveals fascinating confirmation of humans' partnership with the first domesticated wolf-dogs soon after Neanderthals first began to disappear. This alliance between two predator species she hypothesizes made possible an unprecedented degree of success in hunting large Ice Age mammals�a distinct and ultimately decisive advantage for humans over Neanderthals at a time when climate change made both groups vulnerable. Pat Shipman is retired Adjunct Professor of Anthropology at Pennsylvania State University. "Shipman is a genial and authoritative guide to a complex field� Shipman admits that scientists have yet to find genetic evidence that would prove her theory. Time will tell if she's right. For now read this book for an engagingly comprehensive overview of the rapidly evolving understanding of our own origins."�Toby Lester The Wall Street Journal "Few if any readers of this lucid and compelling exposition will come away believing that the early modern Europeans were not deeply implicated in the Neanderthals' disappearance."�Ian Tattersall The Times Literary Supplement "Are humans the ultimate invasive species So contends anthropologist Pat Shipman�and Neanderthals she opines were among our first victims. The relationship between Homo sapiens and Homo neanderthalensis is laid out cleanly along with genetic and other evidence. Shipman posits provocatively that the deciding factor in the triumph of our ancestors was the domestication of wolves. Perhaps more troubling is the concept of early humans as invaders rather than just another species finding its way."�Daniel Cressey Nature "Since the discovery in the 19th century of Neanderthal remains the cause of their extinction has arguably been the most compelling mystery in human evolution� The Invaders offers us the appealing prospect of an expert writing on her specialism and clearly having a great deal of fun doing so. Shipman builds an extremely compelling case for the role of Homo sapiens as an invasive species who arrived in Europe about 40000 to 50000 years ago and had an immediate impact on their new ecosystem. The Neanderthals were not the only victims� What makes Shipman's argument really stand out and offer a fresh perspective on the extinction of Neanderthals is the role that she gives to wolves in the process that led to the dominance of Homo sapiens."�Simon Underdown Times Higher Education "A cautious but compelling argument."�Brian Bethune Maclean's "According to a leading U.S. anthropologist early dogs bred from wolves played a critical role in the modern human's takeover of Europe 40000 years ago when we vanquished the Neanderthal locals� If Shipman is right she will have solved one of evolution's most intriguing mysteries."�Robin McKie The Observer "Provocative� Shipman's story makes for a dramatic and compelling narrative."�Mark Derr Psychology Today "Why did the Neanderthals disappear In a judicious and enthralling account Shipman makes a compelling case that as a truly invasive species humans were the main cause. An original twist adds an accomplice to the scenario: An unexpectedly early prototype of man's best friend proved to be the Neanderthals' worst enemy."�Robert D. Martin A. Watson Armour III Curator of Biological Anthropology The Field Museum Chicago "If you want to understand your own mind read this remarkable and important book. Summoning new evidence Pat Shipman shows how our coevolution with wolves contributed to the extinction of Neanderthals and further transformed us through the process of domesticating dogs. You will never look at Fido the same way again!"�Nina G. Jablonski Ph.D. Evan Pugh Professor of Anthropology The Pennsylvania State University Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2015 hardcover

Shipman Pat
Invasori. Come gli umani e i loro cani hanno portato i Neanderthal all'estinzione
ill., br. L'estinzione dei neandertaliani è uno dei grandi misteri della storia evolutiva. Un enigma che ha appassionato generazioni di scienziati sin dal 1856, quando furono rinvenuti i primi resti di questi ominini. Per centinaia di migliaia di anni avevano vissuto in Europa superando le enormi sfide dei cambiamenti climatici, come mai allora sono improvvisamente scomparsi circa 45.000 anni fa? Pat Shipman punta il dito sul predatore più spietato del regno animale, l'Homo sapiens, e sul suo fido alleato, il cane.
