Description: Biologically as well as culturally sophisticated and drawing on an impressive array of archaeological and paleontological research, this new edition of a widely adopted primary and supplementary text explores human adaptations to environments over time. Campbell proceeds from earlier, simpler biomes to later, more complex ones, examining in their course selected aspects of the prehistory and history of the human species.

Human Ecology offers a succinct introduction to the history of these adaptations within ecosystems, a shared concern among anthropologists, biologists, environmentalists, and the general reader.
