A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

What are species? What are the factors involved in their evolution? Dr Max King presents an up-to-date synthesis of theoretical, experimental and descriptive perspectives on speciation in higher organisms. The book provides a fresh insight into the processes involved in speciation utilizing the multi-dimensional databases now available. The author clearly and concisely analyses the most recent research in plant and animal populations, concentrating on the evolutionary processes, the role of chromosomes and the genetic mechanisms involved in speciation. This book will be essential reading for research workers in genetics, evolutionary studies, botany and zoology, as well as being of interest to advanced students entering the field.

Revue de presse

'All in all, I recommend cytogeneticists to read Max King's book to discover the maximum possible impact chromosomes may have on speciation. However, his ideas may be a long way from the truth ... the debate on speciation continues.' Jeremy Searle, Chromosome Research
