Evolutionary Theory Is For Graduate Students, Researchers, And Advanced Undergraduates Who Want An Understanding Of The Mathematical And Biological Reasoning That Underlies Evolutionary Theory. The Book Covers All Of The Major Theoretical Approaches Used To Study The Mechanics Of Evolution, Including Classical One And Twolocus Models, Diffusion Theory, Coalescent Theory, Quantitative Genetics, And Game Theory. There Are Also Chapters On Theoretical Approaches To The Evolution Of Development And On Multilevel Selection Theory. Each Subject Is Illustrated By Focusing On Those Results That Have The Greatest Power To Influence The Way That We Think About How Evolution Works. These Major Results Are Developed In Detail, With Many Accompanying Illustrations, Showing Exactly How They Are Derived And How The Mathematics Relates To The Biological Insights That They Yield. In This Way, The Reader Learns Something Of The Actual Machinery Of Different Branches Of Theory While Gaining A Deeper Understanding Of The Evolutionary Process.Roughly Half Of The Book Focuses On Genebased Models, The Other Half Being Concerned With General Phenotypebased Theory. Throughout, Emphasis Is Placed On The Fundamental Relationships Between The Different Branches Of Theory, Illustrating How All Of These Branches Are United By A Few Basic, Universal, Principles.The Only Mathematical Background Assumed Is Basic Calculus. More Advanced Mathematical Methods Are Explained, With The Help Of An Extensive Appendix, When They Are Needed.
