Author Description

Focusing on issues relating to evolutionary biology and ecology, this important reference provides a comprehensive, up-to-date study of quantitative genetics. Coverage includes both topics necessary for a general understanding of quantitative genetic analyses and those associated with evolutionary processes in natural populations. With its unique emphasis on evolutionary issues, Evolutionary Quantitative Genetics will be an essential resource for ecologists and evolutionary biologists with an interest in genetics. In addition, geneticists and molecular biologists will benefit from the exhaustive, current coverage and the numerous references. Evolutionary Quantitative Genetics is written at a level suitable for advanced undergraduates or graduate students and for researchers in the field.
