This book is both a review and new synthesis of several of these approaches, based on the theory of spatial genetic structure. Fran ois Rousset examines Sewall Wright's methods of analysis based on F-statistics, effective size, and diffusion approximation; coalescent arguments; William Hamilton's inclusive fitness theory; and approaches rooted in game theory and adaptive dynamics. Setting these in a framework that reveals their common features, he demonstrates how efficient tools developed within one approach can be applied to the others. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Rousset not only revisits classical models but also presents new analyses of more recent topics, such as effective size in metapopulations. The book, most of which does not require fluency in advanced mathematics, includes a self-contained exposition of less easily accessible results. It is intended for advanced graduate students and researchers in evolutionary ecology and population genetics, and will also interest applied mathematicians working in probability theory as well as statisticians.\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a well-written and indeed masterly book.
