Neoteny and Human Evolution HD

http://www.neoteny.org. Human evolution influenced by neoteny may be based on the art of dance. Runaway sexual selection may have encouraged dance. This video shows how by understanding Balyaev Russian silver fox studies we can estimate how the infants of our chimpanzee or bonobo like ancestors evolved ancestor infant features into current human adults. Human evolution, dance and runaway sexual selection may have evolved our big brains into existence. This video suggests that neoteny may be central to understanding how humans evolved big brains by exploring Balyaev Russian silver fox experiments taking into consideration bonobos and chimpanzee physiology and behavior. Inspired by the work of Geoffrey Miller, Sarah Blaffer Hrdy and Jane Goodall, visit neoteny.org to download for free the book this video comes from, Evolution, Autism and Social Change by Andrew Lehman.
