"Haldane's work is even better than most modern popularizations in its balance between gentle rhetoric and logical rigor. . . In addition, working through the arguments in Haldane's Appendices is still likely to produce new ideas in students of the latest topics in sociobiology and evolutionary genetics."—Henry S. Horn, Princeton University
