Books about Evolution

Evolution: An Interdisciplinary Introduction
A comprehensive text introducing the mechanisms of evolution at all scales, the genetic (with brief references to molecular aspects), through other biological aspects (natural selection and adaptation; behavioural and ecological influences; specification), to the palaeontological scale (analysis of macroevolutionary patterns to identify influences), illustrating the hierarchy of processes involved.
The Evolution Revolution
The last decade has seen remarkable new discoveries regarding the evolution of life based on the fossil record--from new information about the earliest multi-celled animals to a new candidate for the ancestor of insects to landmark findings about the region and lifestyle of dinosaurs. This book aims to integrate all of these new findings in an overall evolutionary context, starting with new ideas on the evolution of life on this planet and progressing through the entire fossil record.
The Structure of Evolutionary Theory
"The Times" Book of Fossils and Evolution Science
Traces the history of life on Earth through a series of articles from the Science Times discussing vying theories of evolution and fossil finds.
Evolutionary Biology
The Third Edition of the book once described as "simply the best advanced textbook currently available" has increased its scope while emphasizing the new intellectual and molecular perspectives that have transformed evolutionary studies in the last decade. True to its theme, that evolution both draws on and illuminates all the biological sciences, Evolutionary Biology, 3/e is the most comprehensive textbook in its field.
