| Summary: | "This book considers evolution at different scales. The focus is on the mathematical and computational tools and concepts, which form an essential basis of evolutionary studies, indicate their limitations, and give them orientation"--Provided by publisher. "This book considers evolution at different scales: sequences, gene families, organelles, genomes and species. The focus is on the mathematical and computational tools and concepts, which form an essential basis of evolutionary studies, indicate their limitations, and give them orientation. Recent years have witnessed rapid progress in the mathematics of evolution and phylogeny, with models and methods becoming more realistic, powerful, and complex." "Aimed at graduates and researchers in phylogenetics, mathematicians and biologists."--BOOK JACKET. |
