Mutation - the History of an Idea from Darwin to Genomics

The idea of mutation has changed considerably from the pre-Mendelian concepts of Darwin's generation to today's up-to-the-minute genomic context of mutation. The historical approach taken by this volume reveals the way science works, incrementally by small steps rather than by dramatic, and rare, paradigm shifts.
