Over the past decade, advances in both molecular developmental
biology and evolutionary ecology have made possible a new
understanding of organisms as dynamic systems interacting with
their environments. This innovative book synthesizes a wealth of
recent research findings to examine how environments influence
phenotypic expression in individual organisms (ecological
development or 'eco-devo'), and how organisms in turn alter their
environments (niche construction). A key argument explored
throughout the book is that ecological interactions as well as
natural selection are shaped by these dual organism-environment
effects. This synthesis is particularly timely as biologists seek a
unified contemporary framework in which to investigate the
developmental outcomes, ecological success, and evolutionary
prospects of organisms in rapidly changing environments. Organism
and Environment is an advanced text suitable for graduate level
students taking seminar courses in ecology, evolution, and
developmental biology, as well as academics and researchers in
these fields.
