Auteur :  Bribiescas , Richard G. , 19..-.... Titre :  How men age : what evolution reveals about male health and mortality , Richard G. Bribiescas Editeur :  Princeton, N.J. : Princeton University Press , [2016] ISBN:  978-14-0088-326-4 Notes :  Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed Sep. 08, 2016) La pagination de l'édition imprimée correspondante est de 193 p. While the health of aging men has been a focus of biomedical research for years, evolutionary biology has not been part of the conversation until now. How Men Age is the first book to explore how natural selection has shaped male aging, how evolutionary theory can inform our understanding of male health and well-being, and how older men may have contributed to the evolution of some of the very traits that make us human.In this informative and entertaining book, renowned biological anthropologist Richard Bribiescas looks at all aspects of male aging through an evolutionary lens. He describes how the challenges males faced in their evolutionary past influenced how they age today, and shows how this unique evolutionary history helps explain common aspects of male aging such as prostate disease, loss of muscle mass, changes in testosterone levels, increases in fat, erectile dysfunction, baldness, and shorter life spans than women. Bribiescas reveals how many of the physical and behavioral changes that we negatively associate with male aging may have actually facilitated the emergence of positive traits that have helped make humans so successful as a species, including parenting, long life spans, and high fertility.Popular science at its most compelling, How Men Age provides new perspectives on the aging process in men and how we became human, and also explores future challenges for human evolution and the important role older men might play in them Nécessite un navigateur et un lecteur de fichier PDF URL:  (Accès réservé aux étudiants de l'ENSEA) http://univ.scholarvox.com.ez-proxy.ensea.fr/book/88856340 Sujet :  Écologie Évolution (biologie) Évolution Évolution biologique Aging Men -- Health and hygiene   Exemplaires Site Emplacement Cote Type de prêt Statut   Ensea Ressources numériques ENSEA-SCHOLARV Consultation en ligne Disponible
