Culture and biology are considered as two domains of equal importance and constant coevolution, although they have traditionally been studied in isolation. The Handbook of Culture and Biology is a comprehensive resource that focuses on theory and research in culture and biology interplay. This emerging field centers on how these two processes have evolved together, how culture, biology, and environment influence each other, and how they shape behavior, cognition, and development among humans and animals across multiple levels, types, timeframes, and domains of analysis.
The text provides an overview of current empirical and theoretical advances in culture and biology interplay research through the work of some of the most influential scholars in the field. Harnessing insights from a range of disciplines (e.g., biology, neuroscience, primatology, psychology) and research methods (experiments, genetic epidemiology, naturalistic observations, neuroimaging), it explores diverse topics including animal culture, cultural genomics, and neurobiology of cultural experiences. The authors also advance the field by discussing key challenges and limitations in current research.
The Handbook of Culture and Biology is an important resource that:
* Gathers related research areas into the single, cohesive field of culture and biology interplay
* Offers a unique and comprehensive collection from leading and influential scholars
* Contains information from a wide range of disciplines and research methods
* Introduces well-validated and coherently articulated conceptual frameworks
Written for scholars in the field, this handbook brings together related areas of research and theory that have traditionally been disjointed into the single, cohesive field of culture and biology interplay.
José M. Causadias is Assistant Professor of Psychology at Arizona State University. He researches how the interplay of cultural and biological processes shapes the development of psychopathology and health and well-being. Eva H. Telzer is an Assistant Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. She researches how cultural processes shape brain development, with a focus on family and peer relationships and long-term psychological well-being. Nancy A. Gonzales is Foundation Professor of Psychology at Arizona State University. She studies the role of culture in children's development, psychopathology and resilience.
