More DescriptionThe first edition of Cladistic Biogeography was published in 1986. It was a concise exposition of the history, methods, applications of, and prospects for cladistic biogeography, or the study of the historical and evolutionary relationships between species based on their distribution patterns. Well reviewed, and widely used in teaching, Cladistic Biogeography is still in demand, despite having been out of print for some time. This new edition hasbeen updated throughout, with several chapters being rewritten and expanded to incorporate the latest research findings and theoretical and methodological advances in this dynamic field.
