In this enchanting work of scientific exploration, acclaimed science author Frank Ryan explains how metamorphosis - the intricate trick of nature by which caterpillars transform into butterflies - reveals secrets that are shaking the scientific world.
The imperative to 'know thyself' is both fundamental and profoundly elusive - for how can we ever truly comprehend the drama and complexity of the human experience?
Trust - our belief in the truth or reliability of someone or something - lies at the very heart of our relationships, our society and our everyday lives.
For all the discussion in the media about creationism and 'Intelligent Design', virtually nothing has been said about the evidence in question - the evidence for evolution by natural selection.

Las relaciones establecidas por el hombre con otras formas de vida han estado atravesadas por la tecnología, y a pesar de su relevancia en términos ambientales y sociales, muy pocas veces han sido objeto de discusiones serias en pro de garantizar su modulación.

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) events encompass processes as varied as the exchange of genetic material between microbes coexisting in the same environment, between symbiotic bacteria and their eukaryotic hosts, and the evolution of organelles by symbiosis, in which whole genomes are acquired.
This extensive, three-volume handbook, intensively updated and enlarged, is a superb new resource for students, researchers, and practitioners in paleoanthropology.

Together with early theoretical work in population genetics, the debate on sources of genetic makeup initiated by proponents of the neutral theory made a solid contribution to the spectacular growth in statistical methodologies for molecular evolution.
