My life while the world spins madly on...

Thoughts arising while working as a scientist or just randomly spinning from my brain.

I don't give a damn, I'm happy as a clam, nobody knows me at all

Mutation-Driven Evolution and Punctuated Equilibrium

Started reading a brand new book by Nei: "Mutation-Driven Evolution". So far I like it. Fits with what I think about evolution. Eager to see how the author develops the argument...
 
Also bought this one. Actually I never really believed in punctuated equilibrium, but one has to read all the arguments and consider them.
 
It's a bit bigger though, this book. Now wondering if that says something about the validity of the presented theories. Evolution happens every day and everywhere!
