<P>This guide explains key topics in some 100 concise and authoritative articles written by a team of leading evolutionary biologists. The seven major areas covered are: phylogenetics and the history of life; selection and adaptation; evolutionary processes; genes, genomes, and phenotypes; speciation and macroevolution; evolution of behavior, society, and humans; and evolution and modern society. The title includes over 100 illustrations, glossaries of key terms, suggestions for further reading on each topic, and an index. </P>
