Evolution Since Darwin: The First 150 Years Evolution since
Darwin: The First 150 Years comprises 22 chapters and eight
shorter commentaries that emerged from a symposium held in
November 2009 at Stony Brook University, USA. Thirty-nine
authors from 22 universities and two museums in five countries
write on areas of evolutionary biology and related topics on
which their research focuses. Their essays cover the history of
evolutionary biology, populations, genes and genomes, evolution
of form, adaptation and speciation, diversification and
phylogeny, paleobiology, human cultural and biological
evolution, and applied evolution. The volume summarizes progress
in major areas of research in evolutionary biology since Darwin,
reviewing the current state of knowledge and active research in
those areas, and looking toward the future of the broader field.
