Book Synopsis
Evolutionary maternal effects occur whenever a mother's phenotypic traits directly affect her offspring's phenotype, independent of the offspring's genotype. This book reflects advances in genomic, ecological, and behavioral research, as well as fresh understandings of the evolutionary interplay between mothers and their offspring.

Trade Review
"This book will be useful to anyone studying maternal effects in any species, as well as to everyone studying mammals. The importance of the issues the editors consider is not just restricted to maternal effects, and their application is not just restricted to mammals. Maternal Effects in Mammals will be highly influential. It will set the tone for research on maternal effects for many years to come." - Stephen M. Shuster, Northern Arizona University"
