Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data indicate that evolution has resulted in lineages consisting of mosaics of genes derived from different ancestors, so it is becoming clear that the tree is an inadequate metaphor of evolutionary change. This book promotes the 'web-of-life' metaphor as a more appropriate representation of evolutionary change in all lifeforms.
