Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates a rare anomaly of the malar or zygomatic boneâ"commonly known as the cheekboneâ"in which a persistent suture divides the bone into two portions. This anomaly, as the author shows, is an intriguing example of regressive evolution, with the malar exhibiting characteristics of earlier life forms. Drawing on both osteological and anatomical research, the author provides a comprehensive analysis of the bone's structure and its evolutionary development in a variety of vertebrate species, with particular emphasis on mammals. The significance of this particular anomaly is that it represents a reversion to an earlier stage of development, showcasing the dynamic and evolving nature of biological forms.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the concept of a variety of deformities in skull shapes, a field that has long fascinated anthropologists. In the study of cranial deformities, an in-depth understanding of skull ossification and growth is crucial, as is an appreciation of the processes that can cause the skull to grow in abnormal ways. The author presents several case studies of skulls with unusual deformities, and through these case studies, readers will gain a deep understanding of the causes behind these deformities, how they affect the shape of the skull, and their wider significance in the study of anthropology. The book includes high-quality illustrations and photographs, and is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both academic and general readers with an interest in human evolution and variation.
