Evolution - Tapa dura

The new edition of Futuyma's Evolution is not only still the best text in its class; it has been significantly improved with new examples and diagrams that clarify important concepts.' - Mark V. H. Wilson, University of Alberta, Canada

'Beginning with its striking cover, the new second edition of Futuyma's Evolution offers a very significant update from the first edition. The rapid coalescence of subfields in evolutionary biology is well reflected in this new edition, and makes it an ever more valuable tool in teaching the evolutionary synthesis.' - Olle Pellmyr, University of Idaho, USA

'Because it strikes the right balance between breadth and detail, and is conscientiously written with the student in mind, Futuyma's Evolution will resonate in the classroom.' - Joel Cracraft, American Museum of Natural History

'At Berkeley we have used Doug Futuyma's evolution texts for decades. We find them the most comprehensive, accurate, and well-presented books on the market. His coverage of topics such as the history of the field and macroevolution is not matched in other texts; the level of integration of different evolutionary fields is superior; and his own experience in raising scientific literacy and the public understanding of evolution really comes through.' - --Kevin Padian, University of California, Berkeley, USA
