There is an enthusiastic review by Axel Meyer in this week's (04 October)
Nature of:
"From DNA to Diversity: Molecular Genetics and the Evolution of Animal
Design" by Sean B. Carroll, Jennifer K. Grenier & Scott D. Weatherbee
[Blackwell: 2001. 214 pp. £29.95, $44.95]
"... it is a joy to read. Using striking examples, the authors brilliantly
summarize the current state of thinking on the interconnectedness between
developmental genetics and evolutionary diversification."
