Secular trends in growth in the high‐altitude district of Nuñoa, Peru 1964–2015
OBJECTIVES: Nuñoa, Peru has been the site of anthropological research on human adaptability, growth, and health since the 1960s.

However, no secular trend was evident when the population was re-examined in 1999, following an intervening period of sociopolitical upheaval. Subsequently, the region experienced considerable economic development reflected in secular i…

It examines the coping responses of human agents operating with a "conditional rationality," and the multiple consequences to t…
