Ledyard Stebbins. \u003cp\u003eThis volume covers a range of topics concerned with the evolutionary biology of invasion including: phylogeography and the reconstruction of invasion history; demographic genetics; the role of stochastic forces in the invasion process; the contemporary evolution of local adaptation; the significance of epigenetics and transgenerational plasticity for invasive species; the genomic consequences of colonization; the search for invasion genes; and the comparative biology of invasive species. A wide diversity of invasive organisms are discussed including plants, animals, fungi and microbes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The book's format is easy to navigate, with single articles serving as chapters, providing a comfortable route through which one can locate useful references. The three sections are well defined and cohesive, and contain discussions that bring together the thoughts of the contributing authors on the featured articles...This book serves as a great reference source, with clearly defined articles and an easily navigable layout. It would prove similarly useful for those with interests in either evolution, genetics, or both.\" (\u003ci\u003ePhenotype\u003c\/i\u003e June 2017)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContributors, x \u003cp\u003ePreface, xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Foundations of invasion genetics: the Baker and Stebbins legacy, 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSPENCER C.
