Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'The book addresses the methods and philosophy of biological systematics (phylogenetics, taxonomy, and classification of living things). In particular, it emphasizes an empirical, cladistic approach, which espouses minimization of ad hoc hypotheses of evolution via the parsimony criterion for selecting preferred hypotheses of relationships, and recognition of groups based upon synapomorphies (inferred shared, derived character states) alone'--.…

Brower and Schuh cover: -the history and philosophy of systematics -the mechanics and methods of character analysis, phylogenetic inference, and evaluation of results -the practical application of systematic results to: -biological classification -adaptation and coevolution -biodiversity,and conservation -new chapters on species and molecular clocks Biological Systematics is both a textbook for students studying systematic biology and a desk reference for practicing systematists.
