The last great apes?
F orty years ago, adolescent Figan set off confidently into the woods of Tanzania as though he knew of a food source even richer than the bananas near Jane Goodall's camp.

One day, a high-ranking male turned up in the meantime and sat eating, in full possession of the site. Whe...
متن کاملThe insectan apes.
I present evidence that humans have evolved convergently to social insects with regard to a large suite of social, ecological, and reproductive phenotypes. Convergences between humans and social insects include: (1) groups with genetically and environmentally defined structures; (2) extensive divisions of labor; (3) specialization of a relatively restricted set of females for reproduction, with...
متن کاملPlanet of the apes
What makes us humans so special? Our language, our genes, our culture, our cognitive skills? At the Max-Planck-Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, psychologists, linguists and biologists tackle this old question in a truly multidisciplinary way. Their results have implications not just for our understanding of human evolution--they also touch directly on many social and environm...
متن کاملAPES Report: APES-20-2000 Inside MAC and FC
We report on the behaviour during search of MAC and FC, the two most popular algorithms for solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSP’s). We do so on random CSP’s and a jobshop scheduling problem. We make a number of observations based on our experiments. First, MAC can undergo a ‘propagation cascade’ in which the size of the problem collapses dramatically at a certain depth in search and a...
متن کاملApes, lice and prehistory
Although most epidemic human infectious diseases are caused by recently introduced pathogens, cospeciation of parasite and host is commonplace for endemic infections. Occasional host infidelity, however, provides the endemic parasite with an opportunity to survive the potential extinction of its host. Such infidelity may account for the survival of certain types of human lice, and it is current...
