The Oxford Handbook of Economics and Human Biology provides an extensive and insightful overview of how economic conditions affect human well-being and how human health influences economic outcomes. The book addresses both macro and micro factors, as well as their interaction, providing new understanding of complex relationships and developments in economic history and economic dynamics. Among the topics explored is how variation in height, whether over time, among different socioeconomic groups, or in different locations, is an important indicator of changes in economic growth and economic development, levels of economic inequality, and economic opportunities for individuals.

BOOK EXCERPT:
The term "social science" is often used to refer to the fields that sociology and anthropology fall under. The field is particularly influential within the realm of the social sciences. Sociology is sometimes referred to as "the science of society," which is exactly what the name sociology implies when taken in its most literal definition. In the first half of the 19th century, specifically in the year 1837, a new academic field known as sociology emerged as a specialized science to elucidate the fundamental laws that govern societal phenomena & human social relationships. In this book, the primary focus has been on analyzing the issues and societies of the modern, western world. As a result, it is common practice and generally recognized to connect sociology with the investigation of contemporary, industrialized cultures found in the Western world. An Introduction to Sociology is a presentation of the theoretical perspectives, the techniques of investigation, and the ideas that sociologists use to organize the complex phenomena that arise from social interaction. This book offers an instance of specific research that may give some insights into fundamental aspects of society and the behaviour of social groups. This book also covers the institutionalized aspects of society, such as the family, the economy, and politics, among other topics.
