Evolution - Brossura

Ridley, Mark

 
9780632034819: Evolution

Sinossi

Advances in evolutionary biology have been made from an array of disciplines - molecular biology, quantitative genetics, population biology, behavioural ecology, phylogenetics, developmental biology and palaeobiology. This book presents an account of evolution, giving insight into the ways in which science progresses. The development of ideas is discussed alongside the studies in which these ideas are tested. Divided into four parts, the book considers microevolution, adaptation, the origins of diversity and macroevolution. Aimed at second- and third-year undergraduate students of evolutionary biology, the text uses statements as headings to reinforces main points.
