Get your students thinking critically about evolution.

Evolution presents foundational concepts through a contemporary framework of population genetics and phylogenetics that is enriched by current research and stunning art. In every chapter, new critical thinking questions and expanded end-of-chapter problems emphasizing data interpretation reinforce the Second Edition’s focus on helping students think like evolutionary biologists.

New to this Edition:

New Research Examples: A new study from 2014 examining how selection has favoured certain traits that reduce road-kill of swallows (Ch 3); a new experiment from 2012 involving genome sequencing of family members to explore the relationship between father’s age and the number of de novo mutations in the offspring (Ch 6); a new study from 2013 examining clonal interference in a yeast population (Ch 9)

New Art and Pedagogy: Including new Key Concept questions that challenge students to think critically and apply the concepts to real-life examples; new Key Concept Application questions at the end of each chapter provide a helpful resource for in-class discussion and homework questions; and updated in-text figures with richer, more vibrant colours and photographs

New Resources: The new InQuizitive adaptive learning modules provide personalized help for students to hone their skills in analysing data, understanding the fundamentals of population genetics, and building phylogenetic trees.
