Synopsis
In this text, the archaeologist, Bruce Smith, explores the initial emergence and early expansion of agriculture and the transformations in human society that made it possible. He charts the course of the agricultural revolution as it occurred in the Middle East, Europe, China, Africa and the Americas, showing how basic archaeological methods and modern technologies, such as plant analysis, radiocarbon dating and DNA sampling are used to investigate this event. Although in the agricultural mind, the agricultural revolution is often seen as a one-step transition from hunter-gatherer societies to farming ones, Smith shows how truly varied were the patterns of animal and plant domestication in different parts of the world.

- t***6 (331)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem was listed as brand new. When the item arrived it was packaged in cellophane shrink wrap; however, it was definitely not in new condition as the covers had scuffs and there was writing on the first page that had been erased. The seller offered a full refund if I returned the book, and even offered free return shipping. I thank him for that. I’m not able to use that option due to a class I need this book for so this transaction gets a neutral rating.Introduction to Stellar Astrophysics: Volume 3 (#255633352002)
