Synopsis
From DNA to Diversity represents the definitive synthesis of the new material on developmental genetics and evolutionary biology. Written by the most respected, author team, this text will be the monumental work for shaping the field. Focus on those genes, developmental processes and taxa best known and that best illustrate general principles – Keeps the book simple and useable in class. Two parts: developmental genetics and regulatory mechanisms and second, delineates possible genetic mechanisms of evol. change and examines evolution at different genetic and morphological levels – Builds understanding logically. Case study approach of best understood examples – Provides in depth focus on concepts. Four colour illustrations and photographs – Abstract theoretical becomes realistic. Chapter summaries and references – Provides textbook style help for students. Glossary – Helps both students and professionals unfamiliar with common terms in genetics, developmental biology and evolutionary biology.

About the Author
Sean Carroll is currently an Investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and Professor of Molecular Biology and Genetics at the University of Wisconsin. His research for the past twenty years has focused on the genetics of animal development and evolution, and yielded many original discoveries as to the mechanisms underlying the making and evolution of animal form.
Jennifer Grenier is currently a Senior Scientist in the Microarray group at Mirus Corporation in Madison, Wisconsin. Her scientific interests include the evolution of development, comparative genomics, and innovative technologies for functional genomics research.
Scott Weatherbee is a research fellow at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. He studies the developmental genetics of limb formation and patterning.
From the Back Cover
Animals diverge from common ancestry through changes in their DNA, but what are the genes that control morphology? In this landmark work, the author team lead by Dr. Sean Carroll presents the general principles of the genetic basis of morphological change through a synthesis of evolutionary biology with genetics and embryology. The history of animal evolution, model system developmental genetics, and genetic regulatory mechanisms are first addressed, and then case studies of evolutionary change at different genetic and morphological levels are examined.
