About this Cambridge Elements Series

This series presents an advanced introduction to both foundational and emerging topics in Applied Evolutionary Science. The series aims for broad coverage of all major topics within Applied Evolutionary Science, including: child and adolescent development; education; evolutionary medicine; public health; inequality; marriage, family, and mating; public policy; and group/social relations, among others. Individual Cambridge Elements will be of interest to scholars, various types of practitioners (e.g., educators, social workers, community organizers), and public policymakers. The length (20,000-30,000 words) allows authors to develop their ideas and provide context for their research.

This Cambridge Elements series is published in association with the Evolution Institute, a nonprofit think tank whose mission is to apply science-based solutions and use evidence-based best practices to solve today’s most pressing social problems and to improve quality of life.
