Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 To get to the islands, you have to fly here. While this may sound painfully obvious, many people contemplate cruises to the islands. There is not a single speck of land between the west coast and Hawai‘i. #2 If you’re planning to spend the day at a beach, don’t feel compelled to bring everything with you from the mainland. Hawai’i Beach Time rents everything beachy you can think of. #3 Rental car prices in Hawai‘i are cheaper than almost anywhere else in the country. Make sure you don’t get an electronic key wet with salt water, as it will kill the key and cost you a lot to replace. #4 There are taxi companies around the island that charge set rates. They charge around $35 from the airport to Waikiki. If you call them in advance, you can usually get a cheaper rate.

As both individuals and societies, we are making decisions today that will have profound consequences for future generations. From preserving Earth's plants and animals to altering our use of fossil fuels, none of these decisions can be made wisely without a thorough understanding of life's history on our planet through biological evolution. Companion to the best selling title Teaching About Evolution and the Nature of Science, Evolution in Hawaii examines evolution and the nature of science by looking at a specific part of the world. Tracing the evolutionary pathways in Hawaii, we are able to draw powerful conclusions about evolution's occurrence, mechanisms, and courses. This practical book has been specifically designed to give teachers and their students an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of evolution using exercises with real genetic data to explore and investigate speciation and the probable order in which speciation occurred based on the ages of the Hawaiian Islands. By focusing on one set of islands, this book illuminates the general principles of evolutionary biology and demonstrate how ongoing research will continue to expand our knowledge of the natural world.
