The Story of the Human Body

Описание к видео The Story of the Human Body

How and why is the human body the way it is? What did evolution adapt our bodies for? And how is the human body changing today? In this lecture, Leakey Foundation grantee Daniel Lieberman examines the major evolutionary transformations that shaped the human body since we diverged from the apes, and how our bodies have further evolved. As we try to chart a better future for the human body, thinking about our evolutionary past is more relevant than ever for preventing the expanding burden of chronic diseases whose symptoms we must increasingly treat.
