A manifesto for and an example of a new kind of history, a biological history, and not just of the prehistoric era Scientists have long believed that the 'great leap forward' that occurred some 40,000 to 50,000 years ago in Europe marked the end of significant biological evolution in humans. In this stunning account of our evolutionary history, top scholars Gregory Cochran and Henry Harpending reject this conventional wisdom and reveal that the human species has undergone a storm of genetic change much more recently. Human evolution in fact accelerated after civilisation arose, they contend, and these ongoing changes have played a pivotal role in human history. They argue that biology explains the expansion of the Indo-Europeans, the European conquest of the Americas, and European Jews' rise to intellectual prominence. In each of these cases, the key was recent genetic change: adult milk tolerance in the early Indo-Europeans that allowed for a new way of life, increased disease resistance among the Europeans settling America, and new versions of neurological genes among European Jews. Ranging across subjects as diverse as human domestication, Neanderthal hybridization, and IQ tests, Cochran and Harpending's analysis demonstrates convincingly that human genetics have changed and can continue to change much more rapidly than scientists have previously believed. A provocative and fascinating look at human evolution, "The 10,000 Year Explosion" reveals the ongoing interplay between culture and biology in the making of the human race.

这本书是自带争议话题的,它无时无刻不在挑战传统的人类学理念,在当今占主导地位的是像贾雷德·戴蒙德这样认为环境主导人类历史的进程,人类的演化在过去很长的一段时间里面就趋于停滞了,这意味着人类在走出非洲后基于一样的条件,从根本上否定人种决定论,但很明显本书作者...

年前土摩托在介绍《一万年爆发》这本书并写了篇书评后,引发了一些争论。 这本书的基本内容和观点,已有人总结,可参考 http://www.immusoul.com/archives/2149.html http://book.douban.com/review/5774002/ 一、观点: 这边书的核心观点主要是: 1,近三万年来,人类演化不...

作者在书中向《枪炮病菌与钢铁》叫板,全书风格也有点类似《枪炮病菌与钢铁》的旁征博引,不过程度稍逊。作者认为不同族群之间在基因上的差异可能影响了他们之间的竞争结果,而且基因上的差异比较难通过学习来短期跟进。比如耐乳糖的印欧人很快扩张到欧洲大部分地区,智人能说...

- 基因变革的原则: 1)基因变革是短视的,只是为了今天更好地适应环境,因而有可能成为明天环境变化后的阻碍。 2)鹰鸽博弈:基因中的鹰派和鸽派比例最终是对环境适应的结果。 - 采集-狩猎时代: 智人从尼安德特人那里“收购”的基因引发了人类革命性的变革。新的变种人拥有...

一万年前,人类进入农业社会,从捕猎到农业社会的转型给人类带来了基因巨变。这本书解释了乳糖不耐,欧洲犹太人超高智商,印第安人几乎被灭族而非洲逃过一劫,等等的一个解释。另外,原来4,5万年前咱们还把智人的一支弟兄种族给wipe out了啊~所以说脑壳大是木有用滴
