Review
"A ‘must-have’ reference text for any researcher interested in the biocultural determinants of human fertility and is appropriate as a textbook at the graduate level. I expect it to remain a standard in the literature of demographic anthropology and reproductive ecology for many years to come."
—American Journal of Physical Anthropology
“The Dynamics of Human Reproduction is a splendid, comprehensive classroom text for graduate students studying demography, growth and development, human variation, and medical anthropology. It is also a rich reference for teachers of undergraduate courses in biological anthropology or for researchers in the field of reproduction. . . . Dynamics of Human Reproduction is a necessary text for the shelves of biocultural medical anthropologists. James wood . . . successfully demonstrates how a lifespan perspective can enrich the ecological approach in biocultural research.”
