Autorenporträt
Giuseppe Fusco is Associate Professor of Zoology at the Department of Biology of the University of Padova. His research is in the area of evolutionary biology, with a focus on the variation produced in each generation through reproduction and development, the 'raw material' on which natural selection and other mechanisms of evolutionary change operate. He is editor of the volumes Evolving Pathways: Key Themes in Evolutionary Developmental Biology (2008), From Polyphenism to Complex Metazoan Life Cycles (2010), Arthropod Biology and Evolution: Molecules, Development, Morphology (2013), Perspectives on Evolutionary and Developmental Biology (2019) and author, with Alessandro Minelli, of The Biology of Reproduction (2019).
Rezensionen
'Fusco and Minelli provide a very clear and accessible overview of the strange and wonderful diversity of reproductive strategies and mechanisms in animals, plants and other organisms. They explain key concepts, define important terms, and place reproductive modes within an ecological and evolutionary context. This book will be a useful reference for biologists, students and even curious non-specialists.' Russell Bonduriansky, University of New South Wales, Australia
