Providing outstanding breadth of coverage inevo-devo, Advances in Evolutionary Developmental Biology provides a comprehensive review of the milestonesof research in evolution and development and outlines the excitingresearch agenda for the field going forward. Compiling theviewpoints of a diverse group of field experts, this timely textexpands the now-mature science of evo-devo into more complex areasof research. This essential reference is destined to become thego-to source for ideas and hypotheses for a new generation ofgraduate students in evolutionary and developmental biology.
