DANIEL L. HARTL is Higgins Professor of Biology at Harvard University, USA. He has been honoured with the Samuel Weiner Outstanding Scholar Award and Medal, the Medal of the Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn, and is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. In addition to more than 300 scientific articles, Hartl has authored or co-authored 24 books. ANDREW G. CLARK is Professor of Population Genetics at Cornell University, USA. His research focuses on the genetic basis of adaptive variation in natural populations, with emphasis on
"It is a pleasure to read this new edition of a classical textbook
on population genetics. It shows very convincingly how population
genetics has been revamped in the past twenty years by the
introduction of new statistical and computational methods (in
particular, coalescent theory), and the advent of genomic data, as
well as how these developments changed a formerly rather arcane
science and moved it toward the center of modern biology. In
summary, the
essence of population genetics is nicely condensed in this book.
The presentation is wonderfully balanced between theory and
observation, as well as classical and recent data sets and analysis
tools."
