Folding chart. Book is very good+ in original green cloth with light rubbing to edges and spine tips. Name to front board top. Contents very good with inscription to endpaper, title page and rear page.
Congratulations on your retirement or rather on your Professional life. I hear all the time, preached too, that THE OLD BOOK is not used as much or in its purest form. !! There is a older book on origins they could also of given as a gift.
Congratuations from Norway: I have enjoyed you blog, and especially your style! As for the science, I have done my best to learn what can, but I sorely miss a biological education. My dream was to become a paleontologist but I must confess my fascination with technology got the better of me. Well, what would biology (or any other science) be today without computers?
Congratulations on your retirement!
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on your new endeavors! (whatever they might be)

ReplyDelete(I suppose it is a reason to celebrate?)
Congratulations, I look forward to hearing that retirement will free you more to do the things that really interest you. (I hope to find that too).
ReplyDeleteAs for the book, its cpoverage of molecular sequence evolution and genome evolution is unfortunately inadequate.

DeletePlease put "spoiler alert" in front of such comments. Now you ruined the ending for me ... :-)
Is "cpoverage" anything like "covfefe"?
DeleteThere isn't much to add to its treatment of drift though, clearly emphasizing the role of non-darwinian evolution.
DeleteCongratulations Professor Moran.
ReplyDeleteJohn: Yes, off course, "cpoverage" is a deliberate misspelling intended to get everyone talking about my comment.
ReplyDeleteand "off course" is another.
DeleteCongratulations on your retirement
