About the Book

Evolutionary Biology: The Science of Change delves into the fundamental principles of evolutionary biology, exploring the processes that drive the diversification and adaptation of life on Earth. The book covers key topics such as natural selection, genetic drift, gene flow, and mutation, examining how these forces shape the evolution of species over time. It also addresses mechanisms of speciation, evolutionary patterns and the evidence supporting evolutionary theory, including fossil records, comparative anatomy and molecular biology. By exploring the science of change, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of how organisms evolve in response to environmental pressures. This volume is an essential resource for students, researchers and anyone interested in the dynamic field of evolutionary biology.

Scope

This book provides a comprehensive overview of evolutionary biology, focusing on the mechanisms, processes, and implications of evolutionary change. It covers the fundamental principles of evolution, the evidence supporting evolutionary theory, and the impact of evolutionary processes on biological diversity. The book integrates theoretical concepts with empirical research, offering insights into how species evolve, adapt, and interact within ecosystems. It is designed for students, researchers, and professionals in evolutionary biology, genetics, and related fields.
