  • Evolutionary Biomechanics

    Selection, Phylogeny, and Constraint

    de Graham Taylor, Adrian Thomas ...
    Series series Oxford Series in Ecology and Evolution
    Evolutionary biomechanics is the study of evolution through the analysis of biomechanical systems. Its unique advantage is the precision with which physical constraints and performance can be predicted from first principles. Instead of reviewing the entire breadth of the biomechanical literature, a few key examples are explored in depth as vehicles for discussing fundamental concepts, analytical ... Leer más

  • Dispersal Ecology and Evolution

    Edición de Jean Clobert, Michel Baguette, Tim G. Benton, James M. Bullock ...
    Now that so many ecosystems face rapid and major environmental change, the ability of species to respond to these changes by dispersing or moving between different patches of habitat can be crucial to ensuring their survival. Understanding dispersal has become key to understanding how populations may persist. Dispersal Ecology and Evolution provides a timely and wide-ranging overview of the fast ... Leer más

  • Mutual Aid

    de P. Kropotkin ...
    Two aspects of animal life impressed me most during the journeys which I made in my youth in Eastern Siberia and Northern Manchuria. One of them was the extreme severity of the struggle for existence which most species of animals have to carry on against an inclement Nature; the enormous destruction of life which periodically results from natural agencies; and the consequent paucity of life over ...

  • Parasite Diversity and Diversification

    Evolutionary Ecology Meets Phylogenetics

    Edición de Serge Morand, Boris R. Krasnov, D. Timothy J. Littlewood ...
    The development of molecular tools has dramatically increased our knowledge of parasite diversity and the vectors that transmit them. From viruses and protists to arthropods and helminths, each branch of the Tree of Life offers an insight into significant, yet cryptic, biodiversity. Alongside this, the studies of host-parasite interactions and parasitism have influenced many scientific disciplines ... Leer más

  • Evolution Driven by Organismal Behavior

    A Unifying View of Life, Function, Form, Mismatches and Trends

    de Rui Diogo ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book proposes a new way to think about evolution. The author carefully brings together evidence from diverse fields of science. In the process, he bridges the gaps between many different--and usually seen as conflicting--ideas to present one integrative theory named ONCE, which stands for Organic Nonoptimal Constrained Evolution. The author argues that evolution is mainly driven by the ... Leer más

  • How the Snake Lost its Legs

    Curious Tales from the Frontier of Evo-Devo

    de Lewis I. Held, Jr ...
    How did the zebra really get its stripes, and the giraffe its long neck? What is the science behind camel humps, leopard spots, and other animal oddities? Such questions have fascinated us for centuries, but the expanding field of evo-devo (evolutionary developmental biology) is now providing, for the first time, a wealth of insights and answers. Taking inspiration from Kipling's 'Just So Stories' ... Leer más
