. Conservation and the Genetics of Populations. , Blackwell Publishing, 2007.

This book is about applying the concepts and tools of genetics to problems in conservation. Our guiding principle in writing has been to provide the conceptual basis for understanding the genetics of biological problems in conservation. We have not attempted to review the extensive and ever growing literature in this area. Rather we have tried to explain the underlying concepts and to provide enough clear examples and key citations for further consideration. We also have strived to provide enough background so that students can read and understand the primary literature.
