The Brain and Its Role in the Phylogenetic Transformation of the Human Skull

By Franz Weidenreich

""The Brain And Its Role In The Phylogenetic Transformation Of The Human Skull"" is a scientific book written by Franz Weidenreich. It explores the relationship between the human brain and the evolution of the human skull. Weidenreich, a renowned paleoanthropologist, examines the development of the brain and skull from the earliest primates to modern humans. He argues that the evolution of the brain has played a significant role in shaping the human skull, and that the two are intricately linked. The book provides detailed analysis of the fossil record and comparative anatomy, as well as Weidenreich's own research and observations. It is a seminal work in the field of human evolution and provides valuable insights into the complex relationship between brain development and physical evolution. The book is written for a scientific audience and assumes a basic understanding of anatomy and evolution.Transactions Of The American Philosophical Society, V31, Part 5, No. 2.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
