abstract：:Bilateral tooth measurements in twins are partitioned into three orthogonal contrasts, each associated with one degree of freedom, to estimate three parameters: discordance, asymmetry, and mirror imagery. The probability levels of the within-pair variance ratios were used to test for significance of these estimates. T...

Examination of the archaeological record suggests that both cultural and biological varia...

An important new theory proposed by Robinson concludes that the gracile form of early hominid was an efficient biped, but the robust form was...
