Introduction to Quantitative Genetics is a foundational textbook that presents the theoretical principles underlying genetic variation in quantitative (continuously varying) traits. The book focuses on how genetic and environmental factors contribute to phenotypic variation and how these factors can be analyzed mathematically and statistically. Falconer systematically explains topics such as g…
This foundational textbook serves as a rigorous introduction to basic classical analysis, following a traditional pedagogical path. Designed for advanced secondary students and first-year university undergraduates, the text provides a detailed treatment of fundamental topics including limits, infinite series, continuity, and differentiability (referred to by the authors as "derivability"). By e…
