    Description
    Culture (3) CSU This course provides an overview of the primate life cycle, including humans, from an evolutionary perspective. We will compare the biology and culture of each stage of life across living primate species, hominin evolution, and a variety of modern human cultures, to consider the evolutionary, environmental, and historical origins of these behaviors. Topics will include gestation and birth, childhood and adolescence, mating strategies, family and group dynamics, adulthood and aging.
