In the second part, the phenomenon of macroevolution is examined with the help of real life-history case studies on the evolution of eukaryotic sex, the formation of anatomical form and body-plans, extinction and speciation events of marine invertebrates, hominin evolution and species conservation ethics. The book brings together leading experts, who explain pivotal concepts such as Punctuated Equilibria, Stasis, Developmental Constraints, Adaptive Radiations, Habitat Tracking, Turnovers, (Mass) Extinctions, Species Sorting, Major Transitions, Trends, and Hierarchies ? key premises that allow macroevolutionary epistemic frameworks to transcend microevolutionary theories that focus on genetic variation, selection, migration and fitness. Along the way, the contributing authors review ongoing debates and current scientific challenges; detail new and fascinating scientific tools and techniques that allow us to cross the classic borders between disciplines; demonstrate how their theories make it possible to extend the Modern Synthesis; present guidelines on how the macroevolutionary field could be further developed; and provide a rich view of just how it was that life evolved across time and space. In short, this book is a must-read for active scholars and, because the technical aspects are fully explained, it is also accessible for non-specialists.   Understanding evolution requires a solid grasp of above-population phenomena. Species are real biological individuals, and abiotic factors impact the future course of evolution. Beyond observation, when the explanation of macroevolution is the goal, we need both evidence and theory that enable us to explain and interpret how life evolves at the grand scale. 410 0$aInterdisciplinary Evolution Research,$x2199-3076 ;$v2 606 $aEvolution (Biology) 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aPaleontology 606 $aBiology$xPhilosophy 606 $aEvolutionary Biology 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aPaleontology 606 $aPhilosophy of Biology 615 0$aEvolution (Biology). 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aPaleontology. 615 0$aBiology$xPhilosophy. 615 14$aEvolutionary Biology. 615 24$aBiodiversity. 615 24$aPaleontology. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Biology. 676 $a576.8 702 $aSerrelli$b Emanuele$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGontier$b Nathalie$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298297703321 996 $aMacroevolution$92502140 997 $aUNINA
