Coyne Jerry A. Why evolution is true
Why evolution is true
Oxford University Press, 2009, 336 р.
ISBN 9780199230846

The very latest research is uncovering a stream of evidence revealing evolution in action - from the actual observation of a species splitting into two, to new fossil discoveries, to the deciphering of the evidence stored in our genome. Why Evolution is True weaves together the many threads of mode work in genetics, palaeontology, geology, molecular biology, anatomy, and development to demonstrate the 'indelible stamp' of the processes first proposed by Darwin.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press, 2011, 319 pages In 1995, John Maynard Smith and Ers Szathmry published their influential book The Major Transitions in Evolution. The "transitions" that Maynard Smith and Szathmry chose to describe all constituted major changes in the kinds of organisms that existed but, most important, these events also transformed the evolutionary process itself. The evolution of new levels of biological organizati...

Oxford University Press, 2009 - Science - 264 pages Animal life, now and over the past half billion years, is incredibly diverse. Describing and understanding the evolution of this diversity of body plans - from vertebrates such as humans and fish to the numerous invertebrate groups including sponges, insects, molluscs, and the many groups of worms - is a major goal of evolutionary biology. In this book, a group of leading researchers adopt a mod...
