Population Genetics

This book aims to make population genetics approachable, logical and easily understood. To achieve these goals, the book's design emphasizes well explained introductions to key principles and predictions. These are augmented with case studies as illustrations along with introductions to classical hypotheses and debates. Pedagogical features in the text include ... ; Interact boxes that guide readers step-by-step through computer simulations using public domain software. Math boxes that fully explain mathematical derivations..; Methods boxes that give insight into the use of actual genetic data. Numerous Problem boxes are integrated into the text to reinforce concepts as they are encountered. This text also offers a highly accessible introduction to coalescent theory, the major conceptual advance in population genetics of the last two decades.

  • "The key to understanding population genetics is gaining familiarity with a set of traditional conceptual approaches along with clasical hypotheses and debates. Armed with this background, many empirical studies will be readily understood because the basic hypoheses they address are understood from first principles. To achieve this goal, this book is designed to contain mostly conceptual material that is augmented with case studies as illustrations. Several outstanding pedagogical features including methods boxes and exercises to assist students in conducting simulations using public domain software will be integrated into the text."
