{"product_id":"sexual-conflict-gziran-arnqvist-9780691122182","title":"Sexual Conflict","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe past decade has seen a profound change in the scientific understanding of reproduction. The traditional view of reproduction as a joint venture undertaken by two individuals, aimed at replicating their common genome, is being challenged by a growing body of evidence showing that the evolutionary interests of interacting males and females diverge. This book demonstrates that, despite a shared genome, conflicts between interacting males and females are ubiquitous, and that selection in the two sexes is continuously pulling this genome in opposite directions. These conflicts drive the evolution of a great variety of those traits that distinguish the sexes and also contribute to the diversification of lineages. Göran Arnqvist and Locke Rowe present an array of evidence for sexual conflict throughout nature, and they set these conflicts into the well-established theoretical framework of sexual selection. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The recognition of conflict between the sexes is transforming our theories for the evolution of mating systems and the sexes themselves. Written by two top researchers in the field, \u003ci\u003eSexual Conflict\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book to describe this transformation. It is a must read for all scholars and students interested in the evolutionary biology of reproduction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Göran Arnqvist, Locke Rowe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0691122180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691122182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/25\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.22h x 6.14w x 0.93d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2006 pg. 1038","brand":"Göran Arnqvist","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47135243436287,"sku":"9780691122182","price":93.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_975683a3-a51b-4f7b-903c-394d8403446f.jpg?v=1755009562","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sexual-conflict-gziran-arnqvist-9780691122182","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
