- catalog abstract ""Applying Evolutionary Archaeology is intended to serve as an introduction to the kind of systematics needed to understand the archaeological record in Darwinian evolutionary terms. Not surprisingly given its subject matter, evolutionary archaeology has much in common with paleobiology and uses some of the methods and techniques that have been worked out in the latter discipline to create and explain lineages. In turn, archaeology has something to offer paleobiology, not only in terms of method but also in terms of theory. Thus Applying Evolutionary Archaeology should appeal to professionals, practitioners, and advanced students in both disciplines."--Jacket.".
