Microevolution - Rate, Pattern, Process edited by Andrew P. Hendry Organismic and Evolutionary Biology Program, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA. Michael T. Kinnison Dept. of Biological Sciences, University of Maine, Orono, USA Kluwer Academic Publishers, DordrechtHardbound January,2002 More Information

From guppies to Galapagos finches and from adaptive landscapes to haldanes, this compilation of contributed works provides reviews, perspectives, theoretical models, statistical developments, and empirical demonstrations exploring the tempo and mode of microevolution on contemporary to geological time scales. New developments, and reviews, of classic and novel empirical systems demonstrate the strength and diversity of evolutionary processes producing biodiversity within species. Perspectives and theoretical insights expand these empirical observations to explore patterns and mechanisms of microevolution, methods for its quantification, and implications for the evolution of biodiversity on other scales. This diverse assemblage of manuscripts is aimed at professionals, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates who desire a timely synthesis of current knowledge, an illustration of exciting new directions, and a springboard for future investigations in the study of microevolution in the wild.

Evolution Illuminated Salmon and Their Relatives Edited by Andrew P. Hendry, Department of Biology, McGill University, and Stephen C. Stearns, Professor, Department of Ecology and Evolution, Yale University Oxford University Press November,2003 More Information

This book will appeal to investigators in each of the scientific disciplines it integrates-evolutionary biology, ecology, salmonid biology, management, and conservation. Variation in salmonids can be used to illustrate virtually all evolutionary questions, and so the work will also attract general scientific interest by ecologists and evolutionary and conservation biologists.
