Description:	The ramifications of this new research for human behavior are only now permeating a few subspecialties of Sociology. Early sociologists such as Marx, Spencer, Durkheim, Tonnies, and others were stimulated to think sociologically as they considered the tumultuous history of human beings and large-scale social change. Sociologists have been particularly fascinated with the transition from traditional to modern societies, but much of the theorizing has typically encompassed larger swaths of human history. Some contemporary theorists like Gerhard Lenski continue the fascination with long-term human social evolution, but today the primary focus remains at the point of industrialization. Few consider the vast pools of knowledge from other disciplines that can inform sociological accounts of the past. Cultural anthropologists and, increasingly, evolutionary biologists are stepping in to fill the void.
