Reviews
"At 833 pages, Evolutionby Barton et al.is a large book, and it is copiously and helpfully illustrated with photos, figures and line drawings, mostly in color. The lion's share consists of Part II, "The Origin and Diversification of Life," and Part III, "Evolutionary Processes." The three chapters of Part I introduce the history of evolutionary biology, including molecular biology, and the evidence for evolution. The final two chapters, in Part IV, provide an excellent, uptodate summary of human evolution. The discussion of the OutofAfrica and multiregional hypotheses of the origin of modern humans is nuanced rather than dogmatic. A section on "Genomics and Humanness" is brief but incisive. The final chapter on "Current Issues in Human Evolution" is exemplary and can be profitably read by medical geneticists seeking to establish associations between genes and diseases. The expertise of Barton et al.in population and evolutionary genetics is eminently displayed in Part III, which makes up somewhat more than half of Evolution.All the bases are covered, and well covered at that: mutation and variation, population structure, random drift and gene flow, selection, social evolution, speciation, and much more...The last two chapters of Part III, "Evolution of Genetic Systems" and "Evolution of Novelty," are priceless. In length, depth and excitement, these two chapters go far beyond what is typically covered in evolution textbooks. The increasingly relevant topic of the evolution of evolvability is helpfully included, and evodevo considerations are again brought to bear in these chapters."

Synopsis
World-renowned in the fields of population genetics, bacterial genomics, paleontology, human genetics, and developmental biology, the authors have elegantly synthesized molecular biology and evolutionary biology to produce a thoroughly integrated and current text. Full color., Evolution is a new book on evolutionary biology that integrates molecular biology, genomics, and human genetics with traditional studies of evolutionary processes. Recommended as a primary textbook for undergraduate courses in evolution Required reading for biologists seeking a clear, current, and comprehensive account of evolutionary theory and mechanisms Written by experts in population genetics, bacterial genomics, paleontology, human genetics, and developmental biology Integrates molecular and evolutionary biology in ways that reflect current directions in research, Evolution is a new book on evolutionary biology that integrates molecular biology, genomics, and human genetics with traditional studies of evolutionary processes., Evolution is a new book on evolutionary biology that elegantly synthesizes traditional evolutionary theories with contemporary concepts from genomics, developmental biology, human genetics, and other areas of molecular biology. As an innovative, interdisciplinary, and thoroughly integrated book on evolutionary biology with world-renowned author, Evolution thoroughly illuminates this major paradigm of modern science. Evolutionary principles are introduced with examples from across the spectrum of life - from ''jumping genes'' to RNA molecules, to populations of yeast and E. coli reared in the laboratory, to dung flies, lizards, and deer in their natural habitats. A section is also devoted to human evolution and diversity, merging recent insights from molecular techniques with paleontological evidence. Evolution is recommended as a primary textbook for undergraduate courses in evolution as well as for biologists seeking a clear, current, and comprehensive account of evolutionary theory and mechansms.

- s***a (618)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseQuick response and shipment. The item arrived securely packaged and as described. I think it is a good value. I also received excellent service and would buy again from this seller. Rating A+!
- a***3 (36)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe laptops shipped with UPS and arrived very quickly. Both the 760XL and 770 arrived in good condition and were packaged well. The listing was not quite as described. I was supposed to receive a 760EL, but the XL is a faster variant so I cannot complain. Both computers function and boot, but the 770 has a burnt out screen backlight which I will fix later. Also the hard drive on the 770 was failing making the ominous click click click sound, but I can fix that in time. Overall Great seller!

I can only hope that there isn't any additional internal issues because of it.
