"Mechanisms of life history evolution" Description:

The Open Library:

This title explains the evolution of the major features of life cycles by analyzing the ecological factors that shape age-specific schedules of growth, reproduction, and survival and by investigating the trade-offs that constrain the evolution of these traits.
