Many undergraduate and postgraduate courses now emphasise the value of studying human populations using theoretical frameworks and methodologies from different traditional disciplines. Human Population Dynamics introduces such frameworks and methodologies whilst demonstrating how changes in human population structure can be addressed from several different academic perspectives. As such, the book contains contributions from world-renowned researchers in demography, social and biological anthropology, genetics, biology, sociology, ecology, history and human geography. In particular, the contributors emphasise the lability of many population structures and boundaries, as viewed from their area of expertise. This text is aimed at undergraduate students, graduates and academic researchers from any academic discipline which considers human populations. 410 0$aBiosocial Society symposium series ;$v14. 606 $aPopulation$vCongresses 606 $aSociobiology$vCongresses 606 $aSocial evolution$vCongresses 606 $aDemography$vCongresses 615 0$aPopulation 615 0$aSociobiology 615 0$aSocial evolution 615 0$aDemography 676 $a304.6 702 $aMacbeth$b Helen M. 702 $aCollinson$b Paul$f1969- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450530203321 996 $aHuman population dynamics$92486153 997 $aUNINA
