Description
Discover the groundbreaking insights in 'Evolution, the Logic of Biology' by John Wiley & Sons. This essential textbook provides a comprehensive understanding of evolutionary biology through the lens of physiology. With an ISBN of 9781118729267 and published in 2017, it delves deeply into the cellular mechanisms of life, emphasizing homeostasis as the critical unifying principle of evolution. The text explores how environmental stressors influence physiological mechanisms, leading to innovative adaptations that are essential for survival. Through this detailed exploration, readers will learn about the vertebrate life cycle as a dynamic intergenerational continuum that promotes effective environmental adaptation.
This richly illustrated volume is perfect for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in fields such as evolutionary development, medicine, anthropology, and genomic studies. It encourages a paradigm shift from treating symptoms to preventing disease by understanding fundamental physiological principles originating from unicellular ancestors. 'Evolution, the Logic of Biology' not only maps out the ontogeny and phylogeny of complex traits but also fosters critical thinking about biological processes. This book is an indispensable resource for anyone looking to deepen their knowledge of evolutionary biology and its implications across various disciplines.
