Arguing for Evolution

An Encyclopedia for Understanding Science

By: Sehoya H. Cotner,Randy Moore

This timely encyclopedia presents an arsenal of evidence for evolution that goes beyond the typical textbook examples. Arguing for Evolution: An Encyclopedia for Understanding Science provides readers with a single source for the scientific evidence supporting evolution. The book shows how scientists have tested the predictions of evolutionary theory and created an unshakeable foundation of evidence supporting its truth. As such, it demonstrates how evolution serves as a case study for understanding the scientific method and presents a logical model for scientific inquiry. The evidence for evolution is presented historically and topically in an accessible, example-rich, and logical format, using an arsenal of examples that goes beyond the typical textbook matter. The chapters are structured around a series of hypotheses that the authors put to the test, amassing evidence on fossils, comparative anatomy, molecules, and evolutionary biology in order to conclude that evolution is scientific fact. Learning about this fascinating field is enhanced through "see for yourself" examples that include original data and figures from key historical and contemporary papers in evolutionary biology.

50 Years, 50 Moments

The Most Unforgettable Plays in Super Bowl History

By: Jerry Rice,Randy O. Williams

“In compiling the facts and details for this book, Randy and I have had the pleasure of hearing stories from players, coaches, executives, and broadcasters, spanning six decades of great football. I learned more than I ever thought I would about the game I love.”—Jerry Rice As a three-time Super Bowl winner and Super Bowl MVP, Jerry Rice has firsthand knowledge of what it takes to win championships. In this celebration of the biggest game in professional sports, Rice counts down the fifty greatest moments from the grand, fifty-year history of the Super Bowl. Through scores of first-person accounts from the players and coaches themselves, readers get new and intimate perspectives on unforgettable plays such as James Harrison’s 100-yard interception return for the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XLIII, Butch Johnson’s diving touchdown catch for the Dallas Cowboys in Super Bowl XII, Denver Broncos quarterback John Elway’s “helicopter” dive in Super Bowl XXXII, and how the author himself served as a decoy on the game-winning touchdown that would cement the San Francisco 49ers as the team of the 1980s. Together with coauthor and veteran sportswriter Randy O. Williams, Rice also recounts the improbable moments when role players rose to heroic heights: When the Green Bay Packers’ Max McGee came off the bench to catch the first touchdown in Super Bowl history; when a special teams player who almost didn’t make the Super Bowl roster helped the New Orleans Saints change the tide of Super Bowl XLIV, and when a New England defensive back with one career start made a game-saving interception at the goal line in the final minute of Super Bowl XLIX. 50 Years, 50 Moments presents an intimate chronicle of the plays and players that won championships, forged dynasties, and changed the history of the NFL itself.

Nutritional Anthropology

Contemporary Approaches to Diet & Culture

By: Norge W. Jerome,Randy F. Kandel,Gretel H. Pelto,American Anthropological Association

Abstract: Nutritional states result from both biological and cultural forces. The consideration of nutritional problems from a biocultural perspective comprises the field of nutritional anthropology. Eleven papers are presented representing the efforts of researchers who have examined nutrition in this social context. Their theoretical approach combines the nutritional and social sciences in investigations of the sociocultural, cognitive and ecological aspects of food. The methodology of nutritional anthropology is applied in a study of women's roles in rural Africa. Human dietary adaptations in the evolution of human culture are investigated in a case study of 2 prehistoric populations. The food patterns of a contemporary group demonstrates nutritional adaptation and cultural maladaptation. Demographic effects of sex-specific diets and nutritional correlates of economic microdifferentiation are examined. Other topics deal with malnutrition, diet and acculturation, and health food movement.
