Reproductive inequality in humans and other mammals
To address claims of human exceptionalism, we determine where humans fit within the
greater mammalian distribution of reproductive inequality. We show that humans exhibit lower …

Reproductive trade-offs in extant hunter-gatherers suggest adaptive mechanism for the Neolithic expansion
The Neolithic demographic transition remains a paradox, because it is associated with both
higher rates of population growth and increased morbidity and mortality rates. Here we …
