Book Description
This anthology collects some of the most important papers on what is believed to be the major force in evolution, natural selection. An issue of great consequence in the philosophy of biology concerns the levels at which, and the units upon which selection acts. In recent years, biologists and philosophers have published a large number of papers bearing on this subject. The papers selected for inclusion in this book are divided into three main sections covering the history of the subject, explaining its conceptual foundations, and focusing on kin and group selection and higher levels of selection.
One of the book's interesting features is that it draws together material from the biological and philosophical literatures. The philosophical literature, having thoroughly absorbed the biological material, now offers conceptual tools suitable for the reworking of the biological arguments. Although a full symbiosis has yet to develop, this anthology offers a unique resource for students in both biology and philosophy.
Robert N. Brandon is Professor in the Philosophy Department, Duke University. Richard M. Burian is Professor of Philosophy and Department Chairman, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.
A Bradford Book.

Book Description
In 1974, Richard Lewontin published The Genetic Basis of Evolutionary Change, focusing enormous research attention on protein variation as both a model of underlying genetic variation and as a level of selection itself. Two decades later, scientific research has been shifted by the tremendous power of molecular biological techniques to explore the nature of variation directly at the level of DNA and the gene. The "protein chapter" is now drawing to a close. In this book, Mitton explains the questions that geneticists hoped to answer by studying protein variation, reveiws the extensive literature on protein variation, describes the successes and failures of the research program, and evaluates the results of a rich and controversial body of research. Yet Mitton's book is not merely a history of this research. It is a useful analysis for all scientists interested in the genetic structure and evolution of populations.

Book Description
Selective Sweep deals with the theory and practice of detection of recent adaptive evolution at the genomic level from the patterns of DNA polymorphism. Recent advances in genomic sequencing provide the background for analysis of polymorphic sites in large chromosomal regions or even in whole genome, thus providing the tool for effective identification of loci that are under strong pressure of positive selection. For this reason, the studies of selective sweep, which formerly were of interest mostly to evolutionists, have become widely recognized and appreciated by the large biological community involved in identification of the targets of selection during speciation, host/pathogen interactions, and resistance to chemical agents.

Michael was trained to become a demon hunter so he can protect Asurul's son Ayden. Suited for a life of a hunter Michael had learned long ago to numb his feelings. He swore to never love another woman again, never to give a woman that kind of power over him. But one look at Miranda sends him into a spiral. Wrestling with his pass and trying to fight the present Michael now has to battle with a demon that is stronger and more cunning than any before. Michael must allow Miranda into his heart or both of them will lose their souls.

Book Description
Michael Hemington is a boy with a gift. He has been having strange dreams that seem to be a dark omen of things to come. Michael has been ignoring the dreams for a little while, but soon events will transpire that will force Michael to face what his dreams are about and, underneath that, the darkness that is within him. With the arrival of the serial kidnapper, the Phantom, it seems there is more going on than just Michael having bad dreams. As Michael slowly becomes immersed in the investigation into the Phantom, he begins to have questions about who he really is and whether he can trust the people around him. Is there a connection between Michael and the Phantom? Why are strange people beginning to show up in Michael's life, and can they be trusted? Michael will embark on a personal journey to answer these questions and learn the great strength of the human spirit, but also the darkness of the human soul.

Excellent Thriller.......2006-10-27
This is one of the best thriller novels I've read in a while. I haven't had this good of a read since the last Harry Potter.
Gripping psychological thriller.......2006-08-19
Up and coming author W.M. Paris hits the ground running with an exciting page-turner debut. His work is crisply written, his characters well-developed, and his ear for dialogue first-rate. That the book leaves you hungry for more clearly suggests an eagerly-awaited series of sequels. A great time!
The Great Journey: Beginnings of the Soulkeeper.......2006-08-07
This is truly a great thriller and has you on the edge of your seat wanting more. I enjoy reading new, young authors and I can honestly say W.M Paris is one of the most promising young authors that I have read in a very long time. I look forward to reading more of W.M's work in the future and I can see this book turning into a very successful series. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a book that will keep you interested from start to finish.

Book Description
Into Willowbrook comes the mysterious mage Tatham. To the young halfling Sorin Elwes, he reveals that Elmiron, a twisted sorcerer more wraith than human, is seeking to rule the world. Against the Keeper of Souls the sole effective weapon is the fabled Light Bow--an ancient talisman whose power can be wielded only by the one called Deliverer. Sorin is Deliverer. He must reclaim the Bow...for the fate of the world rests in his hands.
Dire events unfold as Sorin, his brother Pick, the powerful mage Tatham, and Talon Thornblade scour the Five Realms in an attempt to find the legendary Light Bow and destroy Elmiron before he can march his Dark Army across the lands and enslave the people.
In the end, Sorin finds the Light Bow and confronts his nemesis. But the story doesn't end there, for the Bow hides a devastating secret...a secret that could destroy any who attempt to call on its power--including Sorin!
