Reviews?To achieve these goals, the book design emphasizes a wellexplained introductions to key principles and predictions. Theseare augmented with case studies as well as illustrations along withintroductions to classical hypotheses and debates.? ( Zentralblatt MATH , 2012) ?The most catching aspect of Hamilton?s book is itsextremely well thought-out structure and pedagogical concept. Allsections are well motivated in the respective introduction and allchapters have reviews at the end. A large number of problems havebeen interspersed throughout the text for students to work on, andthe solutions are provided at the end of each chapter. A veryinteresting and novel feature is the use of so-called?interact boxes?, which are essentially links tointeractive learning and simulation software available on theinternet.? (Human Genetics, December 2009) "Hamilton's volume would be the best choice for someone seekinga thorough grounding in the subject." (The Quarterly Review ofBiology, April 2010) "Both population biologists and upper-level biology studentswill appreciate the relatively clear explanations of exceptionallydifficult material."

SynopsisThis book aims to make population genetics approachable, logical and easily understood. To achieve these goals, the book's design emphasizes well explained introductions to key principles and predictions. These are augmented with case studies as well as illustrations along with introductions to classical hypotheses and debates. Pedagogical features in the text include: Interact boxes that guide readers step-by-step through computer simulations using public domain software. Math boxes that fully explain mathematical derivations. Methods boxes that give insight into the use of actual genetic data. Numerous Problem boxes are integrated into the text to reinforce concepts as they are encountered. Dedicated website at www.wiley.com/go/hamiltongenetics This text also offers a highly accessible introduction to coalescent theory, the major conceptual advance in population genetics of the last two decades., This book aims to make population genetics approachable, logicaland easily understood.

Dedicated website at www.wiley.com/go/hamiltongenetics This text also offers a highly accessible introduction tocoalescent theory, the major conceptual advance in populationgenetics of the last two decades., The key to understanding population genetics is gaining familiarity with a set of traditional conceptual approaches along with classical hypotheses and debates. Armed with this background, many empirical studies will be readily understood because the basic hypotheses they address are understood from first principles. To achieve this goal, this book is designed to contain mostly conceptual material that is augmented with case studies as illustrations. Several outstanding pedagogical features including methods boxes and exercises to assist students in conducting simulations using public domain software will be integrated into the text., This book aims to make population genetics approachable, logical and easily understood. To achieve these goals, the book s design emphasizes well explained introductions to key principles and predictions. These are augmented with case studies as well as illustrations along with introductions to classical hypotheses and debates.
