Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

Douglas H. Erwin and V.A. Funk, series editors. This monograph series presents innovative studies in the field of comparative evolutionary biology, especially by authors introducing new ideas or expanding accepted views.

In its analysis of the patterns and processes underlying the origin of land plants, the book sheds light on central questions surrounding the initial assembly of terrestrial ecosystems.
