  text: "Evolution permeates all of biology. But researchers in molecular and cellular
    biology, genetics, developmental biology, microbiology, and neuroscience have
    only recently begun to think seriously in terms of evolution. The chief reasons
    for this shift are the growing list of organisms with sequenced genomes; the increasingly
    sophisticated ways of interpreting those sequences; and the ever more powerful
    experimental techniques (and wider range of model organisms) with which to ask
    questions about evolution as well as mechanism.\r\n\r\nEvolution serves as a primary
    text for undergraduate and graduate courses in evolution. It is also a text working
    scientists can use to educate themselves on how evolution affects their fields.
    It differs from currently available alternatives in containing more molecular
    biology than is traditionally the case. But this is not at the expense of traditional
    evolutionary theory. Indeed, a glance at the Table of Contents and the authors'
    interests reveals the range of material covered in this book. The authors are
    world-renowned in population genetics, bacterial genomics, paleontology, human
    genetics, and developmental biology. The integration of molecular biology and
    evolutionary biology reflects the current direction of much research among evolutionary
    scientists."
