It is appropriate for graduate students and researchers (assuming a basic knowledge of evolution, moecular biology, and elementary statistics), allowing many investigators to incorporate refined statistical analysis of large-scale data in their own work.

 Rating: - clear reading for beginnersthis book is realy straightforward, very well-written and really explains the oncept in a very clear way. Excellent choice for non-specialists. Rating: - Molecular Evolution and Phylogenetics by Masatoshi Nei, Sudhir KumarOverall it is a good and complete book on Molecular Evolution, and basic DNA analysis techniques. Rating: - A valuable additionI don't look for any one book to answer all my questions. This one carries its weight, though, and maybe a bit more. The first section gives the clearest and most detailed description of nucleotide sequence comparisons I've seen. I'm no biologist, but it really got me thinking about some new ways to talk about substitution matrices. The bulk of the book covers what I hoped for originally: phylogenetic trees. The authors choose an unusual approach - it doesn't quite meet the ...

Accordingly, attention is shifted to reviewing many recent advances in methods of phylogenetic inference with an obvious bias towards distance methods, particularly those which the senior author devised. In fairness, they give decent coverage to the more popular parsimony and likelihood methods as well. The great strength of the book is the number of real ... Read More Rating: - Top in its FieldThis book is an excellent text and reference for both graduate students and faculty. It covers several topics in molecular evolution and phylogenetic analysis, as the title suggests. It stands as a unique contribution because the authors explain the mathematical and conceptual framework of a given topic in molecular evolution or phylogenetic analysis and give subsequent examples to show how various analytical methods can be applied to the study of that topic. In that context, the explanation of ... Read More
