Artikelzustand:
Gut
Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

Reviews
"Bob Carroll's latest book provides the first modern review of large scale patterns in the evolution of vertebrates viewed in the context of current evolutionary theory. A veritable tour de force...Carroll's book is well written and effectively illustrated...Patterns and Processes of Vertebrate Evolution will form an essential resource for all students of the evolution of vertebrates, but it can also be read with profit by anyone concerned with general issues of contemporary evolutionary biology." American Paleontologist, 'Carroll's overview is welcome, well organised, affordable in paperback format and will prove a very useful backdrop to undergraduate courses on general evolution or vertebrate history.' David Norman, The Times Higher Education Supplement, "...excellent review of the vast recent literature on development, particularly rewarding reading." American Paleontologist, ‘… an intellectual tour de force … Carroll’s overview is welcome, well organised, affordable in paperback format and will prove a very useful backdrop to undergraduate courses on general evolution of vertebrate history.’David Norman, University of Cambridge, 'It is in my view the most important book in vertebrate evolution since Simpson's Tempo and Mode in Evolution (1944), because of what it offers as a summary, an integration, and above all a prospectus for vertebrate biologists of a new synthesis that is showing all signs of a very healthy infancy. Our next generation of scientists would do well to train themselves as Carroll has done in order to fulfill his vision of what integrative vertebrate biology can become.' Kevin Padian Science, "The book covers a broad compass and the author provides accounts of the immense range of biological and geological topics. It is a useful addition to the literature on fossils and evolution." Historical Biology, ‘Robert Carroll has broken new ground. He views the fossil record with the eyes of a biologist and a geologist … Not since 1953, when George Gaylord Simpson published Major Features of Evolution, has there been such a well-founded overview of vertebrate fossils, their distribution in time and space, relationships with other organisms and with the environment.’Douglas Palmer New Scientist, 'This book is a milestone and is highly recommended. General readers: undergraduate through faculty.' F. S. Szaley, Choice, 'Robert Carroll has broken new ground. He views the fossil record with the eyes of a biologist and a geologist ... Not since 1953, when George Gaylord Simpson published Major Features of Evolution, has there been such a well-founded overview of vertebrate fossils, their distribution in time and space, relationships with other organisms and with the environment.' Douglas Palmer New Scientist, "Patterns and Processes of Vertebrate Evolution is a masterful overview of evolution as it is understood by many vertebrate paleontologists and others today...Carroll writes clearly and rapidly-the whole is remarkably up to date, with meaningful incorporation of much current literature...this is a fine book." The Society for the Study of Evolution, 'Robert Carroll has broken new ground. He views the fossil record with the eyes of a biologist and a geologist … Not since 1953, when George Gaylord Simpson published Major Features of Evolution, has there been such a well-founded overview of vertebrate fossils, their distribution in time and space, relationships with other organisms and with the environment.'

Our next generation of scientists would do well to train themselves as Carroll has done in order to fulfill his vision of what integrative vertbrate biology can become." Science, "Every now and again, a brave paleontologist stands back and looks over the collection for anything that links all the tales together...Robert Carroll has broken new ground.

David Norman, University of Cambridge, "Carroll's overview is welcome, well organized...and will prove to be a very useful backdrop to undergraduate courses on general evolution, or vertabrate history."

Synopsis
This new undergraduate text provides an integrated view of the forces that influence the patterns and rates of vertebrate evolution., This new text provides an integrated view of the forces that influence the patterns and rates of vertebrate evolution from the level of living populations and species to those that resulted in the origin of the major vertebrate groups. The evolutionary roles of behaviour, development, continental drift, and mass extinctions are compared with the importance of variation and natural selection that were emphasised by Darwin. It is extensively illustrated, showing major transitions between fish and amphibians, dinosaurs and birds, and land mammals and whales. No book since Simpson's Major Features of Evolution has attempted such a broad study of the patterns and forces of evolutionary change. Undergraduate students taking a general or advanced course on evolution, and graduate students and professionals working in evolutionary biology and palaeontology will find the book of great interest., This new text provides an integrated view of the forces that influence the patterns and rates of vertebrate evolution from the level of living populations and species to those that resulted in the origin of the major vertebrate groups.
