First line
In his first major treatise on organic evolution, Darwin (1859) made a clear distinction between natural and sexual selection.
From the rear cover
"The author succeeds admirably in giving a scholarly, erudite, and up-to-date review of the evolutionary causes and consequences of sperm competition in insects. He covers all the important areas in this field. Simmons is a top researcher in the field of insect sperm competition, knows the literature well, and uses it with skill."--Tim Birkhead, author of Promiscuity
"Leigh Simmons is an outstanding insect behavioral ecologist with an increasingly prominent international stature. Because of his contribution and standing, there will be an immediate appeal of this book, both to established researchers and to graduate students beginning projects in the area. It is written with great clarity, and the scientific integrity shown by the author is impressive. This is an excellent work of high scientific merit--one that makes a real attempt to take a broad and balanced view, while also making fundamental and significant new proposals for study and interpretation."--Geoff Parker, University of Liverpool
