Cladistics : A Practical Primer on CD-ROM

See all formats and editions

Cladistics and phylogenetic reconstruction are subjects which biology students find quite difficult to grasp when taught from conventional textbooks.

This CD provides students with a complete self-study introductory course in phylogenetic reconstruction using cladistic analysis.

The CD is fully interactive and includes animated sequences, questions at the end of each section, and practical exercises.

It is the first exclusively pedagogical CD-ROM devoted to this topic.

By the end of the course students should have a basic understanding of cladistics and be able to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships from morphological and molecular data.

The CD-ROM is accompanied by a short textbook. The book is meant to be used in conjunction with the CD-ROM but can act as a stand-alone aid to learning when the reader is away from the computer.
