Book Description

Extensively reorganized and rewritten; the new Evolution 4th edition (PDF) — featuring a new coauthor: Mark Kirkpatrick (The University of Texas at Austin) — offers additional expertise in evolutionary genomics and genetics; the fastest-developing area of evolutionary biology. Directed toward an undergraduate audience; the PDF etextbook emphasizes the interplay between theory and empirical tests of hypotheses; thus acquainting college students with the process of science. It addresses major themes — including the history of evolution; adaptation; evolutionary processes; and evolution as an explanatory framework — at levels of biological organization ranging from ecological communities to genomes.
