Plasticity refers to the ability of many organisms to change their
biology or behavior to respond to changes in the environment.
Humans are probably the most plastic of all species, and hence the
most variable. This is the first book to examine the history of
research in this area and it provides information on
state-of-the-art research methods and discoveries. It also maps out
some areas of future research in human plasticity and variability.
Topics discussed include child growth, starvation, diseases of both
young and old, and the effects of migration, modernization and
other life-style changes. The book will be especially useful to
biological anthropologists, human biologists and medical scientists
interested in knowing more about how and why humans vary.
