I have just received the very first copies of a new textbook that I have compiled for The Human Animal (BIO1300) in collaboration with Pearson Canada.  The topics include:

• The modes and mechanisms of evolution
• Human evolution and the hominid lineage
• Climate change
• Skin structure and function
• The evolution of hairlessness and skin colour
• UV light, the ozone layer and cancer
• The brain and language
• The brain, emotions and drugs
• Reproductive anatomy and physiology, mating strategies and sex

You may get your copy at the University of Ottawa bookstore or drop by to say Hi and have a look at one on my shelf.
