OverviewAuthored by leading experts, this seminal text presents a straightforward and elementary account of coalescent theory, which is a central concept in the study of genetic sequence variation observed in a population. Rich in examples and illustrations it is ideal for a graduate course in statistics, population, molecular and medical genetics, bioscience and medicine, and for students studying the evolution of human population and disease. It is also an invaluable reference for bioscientists and statisticians in the pharmaceutical industry and academia Full Product DetailsAuthor: Jotun Hein (, Professor of Bioinformatics Department of Statistics, University of Oxford) , Mikkel Schierup (, Bioinformatics Research Center, University of Aarhus, Denmark) , Carsten Wiuf (, Bioinformatics Research Center, University of Aarhus, Denmark)Publisher: Oxford University Press Imprint: Oxford University Press Dimensions: Width: 17.20cm , Height: 1.50cm , Length: 24.50cm Weight: 0.610kg ISBN: 9780198529965ISBN 10: 0198529961 Pages: 296 Publication Date: 09 December 2004 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: To order Stock availability from the supplier is unknown.

Table of ContentsReviewsThis book fills a very important gap, as the first general textbook to deal exclusively with coalescent theory. Systematic Biology this book should be mandatory reading for any graduate student working on population-level molecular data. Evolution an excellent and timely book that should appeal to a variety of people in genetics and applied mathematics. Professor Montgomery Slatkin (Berkeley) the authors are outstanding experts in the field, and the book is topical and timely. Professor David Balding (Imperial College) Hein, Schierup and Wiuf have written the first general book on the coalescent. It is an engaging combination of clear mathematical derivation and real data examples. Professor Joe Felsenstein (University of Washington) There has been a dire need for a good book introducing coalescent theory to biologists. Gene Genealogies,Variation and Evolution fills this important gap this book should be mandatory reading for any graduate student working on population-level molecular data.
