Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 2014 OUP hardcover edition. Unread copy in very good condition. From the cover: The concept of the social brain has become a popular topic in the last decade and has generated interest within the research community and contributed to a wide public examination of human culture, nature, mind, and instinct, as well as aspects of social and business organization. At its core, the hypothesis that our social life drove the dramatic enlargement of our brain bridges the dimensions of our evolutionary history and our contemporary experience. This has been the focus of a seven-year research project funded by the British Academy, the British Academy Centenary Research Project (otherwise known as the Lucy Project). The main aim of the Lucy Project has been to explore these two axes in an integrated set of studies whose focus was to link archaeology and, in its broadest sense, evolutionary psychology, which offers powerful, new explanatory insights. This approach redresses the past contribution from archaeology towards the study of evolutionary issues and ties evolutionary psychology into the extensive historical data from the past, allowing us to escape the confined timeframe of the comparatively recent human mind.In this volume of published and new papers, the contributors explore the question of just what it is that makes us so different, and why and when these uniquely human capacities evolved.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Nuclear magnetic resonance techniques have advanced dramatically in recent years, and are now more powerful and more versatile than ever before. To exploit these techniques efficiently, the chemist must have both an understanding of their theoretical basis and the ability to interpret the spectra accurately. The new edition of this established workbook develops the latter skill to an advanced level by a combination of worked examples and set problems that cover one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques applied to organic and inorganic systems. Most of the problems are genuine research examples, and this new edition contains eight pages of problems drawn from very recent research work. This second edition is fully compatible with the second edition of Modern NMR Spectroscopy: a guide for chemists, and the two books are thoroughly cross referenced throughout.…
