Product Description
Written by a leading expert in the field, Genetics of Populations is designed for advanced undergraduate and graduate students of biological science and is the most current and comprehensive introduction available to this dynamic area of study. Completely updated and revised to keep pace with on-going developments in the science, Genetics of Populations integrates empirical and experimental population genetics with theory, and gives methods for estimating population genetics parameters as well as other statistical tools useful for population genetics. A complete bibliography and subject index also make this text an invaluable reference tool for professionals in many related disciplines including population ecology and behavior, conservation biology, medical genetics, and plant and animal breeding.
