Book Reviews of Evolution
Book Review: A brilliant textbook on evolutionary biology
Summary: 5 Stars
I must say that this is one of the best evolutionary biology textbooks available for an undergraduate student. I personally used the previous edition before graduation thus this one was not available yet but the new edition seems to be even more elegant and informatic. And the most imortant thing of all - it is quite easy to understand as other Futuyma's textbooks as well.
Of course, it is a kind of thin and most ceartinly it is not enough for a person willing to get e.g. a PhD on evoltonary biology or ecology. It still remains a good companion for those whose field is not specifically evobio and of course, as I mentioned before, it is brilliant for undergraduates. If anyone asked me what should be the student's first gate to evolution I would surely recommend this texbook.
