The present book is the first to reveal that Darwin's hypothesis, rather than amounting to a full-blown antidote to the humanist tradition, is actually strongly informed both by classical rhetoric and by English and German philosophical aesthetics, thereby Darwin's theory far richer and more interesting for the understanding of poetry and song. The book also discusses how the three most discussed hypothetical functions of the human arts--competition for attention and (loving) acceptance, social cooperation, and self-enhancement--are not mutually exclusive, but can well be conceived of as different aspects of the same processes of producing and responding to the arts. Finally, reviewing the current state of archeological findings, the book advocates a new hypothesis on the multiple origins of the human arts, posing that they arose as new variants of human behavior, when three ancient and largely independent adaptions--sensory and sexual selection-driven biases regarding visual and auditory beauty, play behavior, and technology--joined forces with, and were transformed by, the human capacities for symbolic cognition and language. 606 $aArts$xPhilosophy 606 $aAesthetics 610 $aAlexander G.

Also, because the adults are so well known in this country, this book will provide completion to our understanding of the life cycle of an entire fauna. Through the six chapters of this book, the reader will find an introduction with generalities of the order Odonata, a description of the morphology of a dragonfly larva with emphasis in the structures used in the keys, a brief description of Thailand?s geography, relief, hydrology, climate, precipitation, agriculture, history, and faunal studies, and detailed descriptions of each of the 82 genera of Anisoptera of Thailand whose larvae are known. This book will have broad appeal in the large community of odonatists around the world and for the aquatic entomologists, ecologists, and conservationists interested in the Southeast Asian fauna in general. 606 $aInvertebrates 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aAnatomy, Comparative 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology 606 $aInvertebrate Zoology 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aAnimal Anatomy 606 $aConservation Biology 606 $aEcology 615 0$aInvertebrates. 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aAnatomy, Comparative. 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 14$aInvertebrate Zoology. 615 24$aBiodiversity. 615 24$aAnimal Anatomy. 615 24$aConservation Biology. 615 24$aEcology. 676 $a595.733 700 $aNovelo-Gutie?rrez$b Rodolfo$01749371 702 $aSites$b Robert W. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910874663903321 996 $aThe Dragonfly Nymphs of Thailand (Odonata: Anisoptera)$94234484 997 $aUNINA
