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. |

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. |
