Index
Michael Arnold is an evolutionary biologist with over 100
scientific articles to his credit. He is best known for the work
produced by his group on the evolutionary role of natural
hybridization - particularly relating to the plant group known as
the Louisiana Irises. However, he has collaborated on evolutionary
biology research projects involving organisms as diverse as
primates, bats, Columbines, fruit flies and fungi. He has published
two other books - Natural
Hybridization and Evolution (OUP, 1997) and Evolution Through
Genetic Exchange (OUP, 2006). Mike is also a published outdoor
writer whose stories and photographs have appeared in such places
as Safari
Magazine. Mike and his wife Frances have two adult children, Brian
and Jenny.
The strength of this book lies in its taxonomic breadth.
