  • The Evolution of Complexity by Means of Natural Selection
    John Tyler Bonner
    John Tyler Bonner makes a new attack on an old problem: the question of how progressive increase in the size and complexity of animals and plants has occurred. 'How is it,' he inquires, 'that an egg turns into an elaborate adult? How is it that a bacterium, given many millions of years, could have evolved into an elephant?' The author argues that we can understand this progress...

  • Plant Strategies and the Dynamics and Structure of Plant Communities. (MPB-26), Volume 26
    David Tilman
    Although ecologists have long considered morphology and life history to be important determinants of the distribution, abundance, and dynamics of plants in nature, this book contains the first theory to predict explicitly both the evolution of plant traits and the effects of these traits on plant community structure and dynamics. David Tilman focuses on the universal requiremen...

    Charles Darwin
    Natural Selection is the manuscript on which Darwin based his landmark volume, On the Origin of Species.This edition, first published in 1975 and now available in paperback, presented, for the first time, the complete work; a formal and thorough presentation of Darwin’s views on evolution. Compared with the Origin, the original long work on Natural Selection has more abundant e...

    David W. Stephens / David WStephens / John R. Krebs / John RKrebs
    This account of the current state of foraging theory is also a valuable description of the use of optimality theory in behavioral ecology in general. Organizing and introducing the main research themes in economic analyses of animal feeding behavior, the authors analyze the empirical evidence bearing on foraging models and answer criticisms of optimality modeling. They explain ...

  • Theoretical Studies on Sex Ratio Evolution. (MPB-22), Volume 22
    Sabin Lessard / Samuel Karlin
    This book deals with a key area of population genetics: the ratio of the sexes in a population, or the allocation of resources to male versus female reproductive function. Samuel Karlin and Sabin Lessard establish the formal theoretical aspects of the evolution of sex ratio within the constraints of genetic mechanisms of sex determination. Their results generalize and unify exi...

    John A. Endler / John AEndler
    Natural selection is an immense and important subject, yet there have been few attempts to summarize its effects on natural populations, and fewer still which discuss the problems of working with natural selection in the wild. These are the purposes of John Endler’s book. In it, he discusses the methods and problems involved in the demonstration and measurement of natural selec...

  • Resource Competition and Community Structure. (MPB-17), Volume 17
    David Tilman
    One of the central questions of ecology is why there are so many different kinds of plants and animals. Here David Tilman presents a theory of how organisms compete for resources and the way their competition promotes diversity. Developing Hutchinson’s suggestion that the main cause of diversity is the feeding relations of species, this book builds a mechanistic, resource-based...

  • Cultural Transmission and Evolution (MPB-16), Volume 16
    Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza / Marcus W. Feldman / Marcus WFeldman
    A number of scholars have found that concepts such as mutation, selection, and random drift, which emerged from the theory of biological evolution, may also explain evolutionary phenomena in other disciplines as well. Drawing on these concepts, Professors Cavalli-Sforza and Feldman classify and systematize the various modes of transmitting 'culture' and explore their consequenc...

    In spite of the fact that parasites represent more than half of all living species of plants and animals, their role in the evolution of life on earth has been substantially underestimated. Here, for the first time within an evolutionary and ecological framework, Peter Price integrates the biological attributes that characterize parasites ranging from such diverse groups as vir...

    This book explores the relationship between various types of reproduction and the evolutionary process. Starting with the concept of meiosis, George C. Williams states the conditions under which an organism with both sexual and asexual reproductive capacities will employ each mode. He argues that in low-fecundity higher organisms, sexual reproduction is generally maladaptive, a...
