Endless forms : species and speciation

Speciation is one of the great themes of evolutionary biology. This work offers information on species concepts, modes of speciation, the nature of reproductive barriers, the forces that drive divergence of populations, the genetic control of reproductive isolation, and the role played by hybrid zones and hybridization in speciation.
