Synopsis "Human Biologists in the Archives: Demography, Health, Nutrition and Genetics in Historical Populations (Cambridge Studies in Biological and Evolutionary Anthropology) "

This book describes how archival data inform anthropological questions about human biology and health. The authors present a diverse array of human biological evidence from a variety of sources including the archaeological record, medical collections, church records, contemporary health and growth data, and genetic information from the descendants of historical populations. The contributions demonstrate how the analysis of historical documents expands the horizons of research in human biology, extends the longitudinal analysis of microevolutionary and social processes into the present, and enhances the understanding of the human condition.
