recent developments that move away from hypothesis tests toward model selection and maximum likelihood, Bayesian, and approximate Bayesian inference of parameters are absent. Although these topics are fairly new to population genetics, empirical investigators who wish to answer the question posed in the Preface—“given a collection of DNA sequences, what underlying forces are responsible for the observed patterns of variability?”—would be interested to know about them. Finally, although examples are used effectively to describe individual methods, some synthesis that connects several techniques to the same example dataset would help empirical population geneticists design analyses of their own data. Despite these limitations, if used in conjunction with texts that state results in broader biological context, this book would be helpful to those with a mathematical or statistical background who are encountering the subject for the rst time. The book is more theoretical than most books in the area, and because it is more modern than related classics, such as those by Crow and Kimura (1970) and Ewens (1979), it will be an informative reference for researchers in the eld.
