Asymmetry in Plants

 

Plants exhibit forms of asymmetry analogous to "handedness" in bilaterally symmetrical animals. This book explores the evolutionary significance and development of asymmetry including the direction of tendril growth or stem coiling found in many climbing plants, spiral phyllotaxy and floral taxy, and contorted petal arrangement.

Why Ecosystems Matter

Darwin gained a profound insight into how complex ecosystems evolve through the interactions of their species. Here, visiting some remarkable ecosystems, Christopher Wills explains the recent scientific advances that allow us to measure the evolutionary drivers powering their diversity and resilience, and can enable us to protect and restore them.

Statistical Analysis of Molecular and Genomic Evolution

Proposes a new framework of knowledge for the field of evolutionary genomics. Written at the simplest mathematical level whilst offering a clear explanation of complex statistical models and principles.

Disembodied Brains

Until recently, brains in vats and animals with partly-human brains have been the realm of science fiction, but recent research is making them real. In Disembodied Brains, John H. Evans examines the viewpoints of professional ethicists and scientists on the implications of these new technologies, and how those viewpoints contrast with the fearful intuitions of the general public.
