My awesome new postdoc. December 1, 2015. This is just a quick post to announce that I have started a new postdoc with Sarah Mathew. Group at ASU’s School of Human Evolution and Social Change. I will be further developing our evolutionary theory of large-scale warfare. As well as fieldwork with Turkana. Warriors in northwest Kenya. There is. Of new and exciting work at ASU on human evolution and behavior and I am very excited to join the team! A month or so of links…. October 7, 2015. By Jack Smith IV.
