Migration and colonization are major forces affecting the frequency, spatial pattern and spread of genes in human populations. Differing from other books by focusing on migration as a process rather than as its genetic consequences, this volume provides a bridge between the biological and social science studies of migration, to look at the evolutionary consequences in human populations. It will provide much food for thought for professionals and students interested in how migration has...
