Popis:	The article is aimed at further developing V.I. Medvedev’s ideas about the specific character of human adaptation processes described in his monograph Adaptatsiya cheloveka (Human Adaptation) (St. Petersburg: Institute of the Human Brain of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2003). The key point is the statement that “human adaptation is a process ensuring the attainment of a particular objective.” The article elucidates and develops this statement on the basis of a cross-disciplinary approach to the problem of adaptation (including biological, psychological, and social adaptation) and the results of a number of empirical researches.
