The book then turns its focus to phylogenetic trees, including an in-depth guide to tree-building algorithms. Additional coverage includes: Parsimony and parsimony analysis Parametric phylogenetics including maximum likelihood and Bayesian approaches Phylogenetic classification Critiques of evolutionary taxonomy, phenetics, and transformed cladistics Specimen selection, field collecting, and curating Systematic publication and the rules of nomenclature Providing a thorough synthesis of the field, this important update to Phylogenetics is essential for students and researchers in the areas of evolutionary biology, molecular evolution, genetics and evolutionary genetics, paleontology, physical anthropology, and zoology.
Professor Wiley is Emeritus Professor of Ecology and evolutionary Biology at the University of Kansas. Currently he works in the University of Kansas Natural History Museum. Professor Wiley's distinguished career is marked by hundreds of peer-reviewed papers, a continuous string of research grants, including his current NSF grant, "Assembling the Euteleost Tree of Life," and the publication of 5 books. Professor Lieberman is an Invertebrate Paleontologist at University of Kansas. Professor Lieberman has also authored five books as well as numerous peer reviewed publications. His long string of research grants culminates most recently with an NSF grant to study "Revisionary systematic of Cheirurid Trilobites."
