Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Condizione: Excelente. 4ª Edición. Traducción de Luis Pezzi. Encuadernación en rústica con solapas, portada ilustrada. Contiene ilustraciones en b/n. 471 págs. Por genética de la conducta se entiende el estudio sistemático de las bases heredables del comportamiento y su papel en el proceso evolutivo. Dado que los principios básicos de la herencia son idénticos, con independencia de los fenotipos que se decida estudiar, buena parte de este libro está dedicado a los conceptos genéticos; la obra, sin embargo, no pretende ser un texto más de genética, sino que se centra primordialmente en la complejidad de los diversos fenotipos conductuales, cuya selección refleja por fuerza el hecho de que la genética de la conducta se ha ocupado a menudo de materias que tradicionalmente pertenecían al ámbito de la psicología. Tras una introducción histórica (que examina los trabajos de Charles Darwin y Francis Galton y la relación de la teoría evolutiva con la genética de la conducta y la sociobiología), el autor analiza los conceptos básicos de la genética (genes, cromosomas y su influencia en la conducta), estudia la genética de poblaciones y la genética cuantitativa y ofrece una generalización del modelo multifactorial. La obra prosigue con el examen de los métodos y hallazgos de la genética de la conducta: métodos específicos de análisis del comportamiento no humano, estudios de familias, estudios de gemelos y estudios de adopciones, con especial hincapié en dos aspectos tan importantes del comportamiento como sea la cognición (C. I. y capacidades cognitivas específicas) y la psicopatología (fundamentalmente la psicosis). El último capítulo reconsidera algunos de los temas tratados y señala algunos aspectos especialmente polémicos de este área de estudio: las diferencias étnicas, sexuales y de clase y las implicaciones sociológicas de los estudios de la genética de la conducta.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. A growing tension between the United States and Great Britain permeates the 236 letters printed in Volume 16 of Adams Family Correspondence. The Embargo Act of 1807 cut off trade with the British in response to the harassment of American ships. John and Abigail Adams witnessed their neighbors' ensuing economic hardships and felt the sting of knowing that their son played a role in its passage. The efforts of US Senator John Quincy Adams to balance conscience with party and family loyalties are revealed in earnest correspondence, culminating in his resignation in the face of withering Federalist criticism. Louisa Catherine Adams's loyalties were always with her senator husband, though her attentions were focused on raising their children. Family concerns also occupied Thomas Boylston Adams. He married Ann Harrod, and together they added two children to the growing flock under Abigail's wing at Peacefield. Farther afield was the Adamses' daughter, Nabby, who from New York shepherded her maturing sons through school and into adulthood. Nabby's son William was caught up in foreign intrigue when he joined an expedition of Francisco de Miranda aimed at liberating Venezuela from Spanish rule. To the relief of all the Adamses, William safely returned home. In the background of all these activities was the concern of the Adamses and of all Americans who wondered if the young republic would survive a military test with Britain. The letters printed in this volume tell these stories and more, providing invaluable commentary by the people who again experienced uncertain days in the early American republic. From Quincy, MA, John and Abigail Adams watched and felt the impact of a US embargo on British trade, while Senator John Quincy Adams drew Federalist ire for his role in its passage. In 236 letters, Volume 16 reveals Thomas Boylston Adams marrying and becoming a father and sister Nabby weathering the South American adventure of her eldest son. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. John and Abigail Adams remained fully engaged in American political life after they left Washington, DC, for retirement in Quincy. A highlight of Volume 15 of Adams Family Correspondence is a series of letters between Abigail Adams and Thomas Jefferson that debated fundamental questions of the nation's tumultuous early years. A new generation rose in prominence in the period covered in the volume, with John Quincy Adams returning from abroad to take a seat in the United States Senate just in time to break with the Federalists and support the Louisiana Purchase. The family commented on other events of the era-Jefferson's dismantling of John Adams's judicial reforms, the mobilization of the US Navy for the Barbary wars, the growing bane of British impressment, and the duel that killed Alexander Hamilton.Equally compelling family stories emerge in the volume's 251 letters. The failure of a British banking firm proved calamitous to the family's finances, compelling John Quincy to quietly finance his parents' retirement. Thomas Boylston Adams, acting as an occasional editor of the Port Folio, carved out his public persona as a man of letters. Louisa Catherine Adams wrote of motherhood and adjusting to a new country of residence while providing a spirited perspective on Washington society. As always, the heart of Adams Family Correspondence is Abigail Adams, who survived a near-fatal fall to continue providing letters of insight and wit that once again show why the correspondence of the Adams family is a national treasure.

Hardback. Condizione: New. John Adams's shaping of the vice presidency dominates this volume of the Papers of John Adams, which chronicles a formative era in American government spanning June 1789 to February 1791. As the first federal Congress struggled to interpret the US Constitution and implement a new economic framework, Adams held fast to federalist principles and staked out boundaries for his executive powers. Meeting in New York City, Adams and his colleagues warred over how to collect revenue and where to locate the federal seat. They established and staffed the departments of state, treasury, and war. Adams focused on presiding over the Senate, where he broke several ties. Enduring the daily grind of politics, he lauded the "National Spirit" of his fellow citizens and pledged to continue laboring for the needs of the American people. "If I did not love them now, I would not Serve them another hour-for I very well know that Vexation and Chagrine, must be my Portion, every moment I shall continue in public Life," Adams wrote. He plunged back into writing, using his Discourses on Davila to synthesize national progress with republican history. Whether or not the union would hold, as regional interests impeded congressional action, remained Adams's chief concern. "There is every Evidence of good Intentions on all sides but there are too many Symptoms of old Colonial Habits: and too few, of great national Views," he observed. Once again, John Adams's frank letters reveal firsthand the labor of nation-building in an age of constitutions.
