Modeling Evolution
An Introduction to Numerical Methods
Derek A. Roff
Reviews and Awards
"This textbook provides both an introduction to a wide range of models relevant in evolutionary biology as well as to the analytical, numerical, and computational methods for studying them. A further useful point is that the coding is available at the author's website, making implementation much easier." -- Reinhard Bu¨rger, Mathematics, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria
"Roff's book differs from currently available texts on evolutionary models by providing detailed examples in the form of imbedded code for R and also for MATLAB, a commercially available numerical computing environment. By tying the examples closely to the specific development platforms, the reader is provided with easily understandable, hands-on examples to follow." -- Evolution
