Synopsis

Understanding the process of the adaptive evolution of phenotypes is a fundamental problem in evolutionary biology. Phenotypic expression has variously been attributed to developmental, genetic and environmental factors, but few attempts have been made to integrate these approaches. This book presents a cohesive view of how adaptive phenotypes evolve, recognizing organisms as complex genetic-epigenetic systems that develop in response to changing internal and external environments.
