Eeep! You all are writing these faster than I can digest them!

I note there's a special place set aside for "The Week of Just Science." Was that easy to set up? I'd love to have these "Basic Concepts" gathered together and RSS-ified somehow..

Also, I was going to ask you to recommend a Population Genetics textbook, and it seems you provided me links to two!

Cheers,

there are plenty of ways to do an rss aggregation. for 'just science' i used feedpress 0.98 & wordpress. but don't worry about basic concepts, scienceblogs.com is working on a new category from what i hear....

"The Week of Just Science" is a good idea. Thanks for your post.
Just wanted to point out that you misspelt the name of one of the best mathematician, the world has ever seen.
Its not Ramanujin but Ramanujan.

Bob,
For what it's worth- the Hartl and Clark (Principals of Pop Gen) is light years ahead of any of the other Pop gen textbooks...

Bob, you should also read the chapter on maintenance of genetic variation in Roff's _Evolutionary Quantitative Genetics_. The book doesn't have lots on pop gen, but this issue is a pretty "hot topic" in evolutionary genetics, though it doesn't get much treatment in the Hartl & Clarke book.

Wow, Matt and agnostic, thanks for the info.

I think razib gets a "cut" if I buy these directly from the link. How about if I put them on an amazon 'wish list,' then later purchase them. Anyone know?

if you click through i think i get a cut. but no biggie either way, i don't depend on the $$$ i get via these links. its a legacy when i was paying webhosting costs and i used it to defray them. but now i pay no webhosting costs on either blog.

Cool. I'll just buy them directly from the link. My price is the same either way, and I'm pleased that you might benefit a bit.
