Review: Five Stars - Fast delivery, product as expected.
Review: Conservation book - The book is fine for beginners in the conservation genetics. So the price, I think that is expensive, because the book is just only an introduction to conservation genetics.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars
*by E***3 on August 2, 2014*

Fast delivery, product as expected.

### ⭐⭐ Conservation book
*by R***L on December 7, 2007*

The book is fine for beginners in the conservation genetics. So the price, I think that is expensive, because the book is just only an introduction to conservation genetics.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Decent book, the title does say "primer"
*by T***M on May 12, 2011*

I thought this book was very entry level but that was exactly what the editors were going for. You will find this book useful if you have an understanding of biology and basic mendelian genetics but have never had any additional genetics. It is a good introduction for those with minimal to no experience with population/conservation genetics but are intimidated by the larger population genetics specific texts. If you looking for a through introduction to conservation genetics this is not the book (go straight to the big books, an excellent choice is Genetics of Populations, Fourth Edition (2011)) , but it you just want to get your feet wet this will be more than sufficient to familiarize you with the basic principles. I agree with the previous reviewer I feel the price is a bit steep seeing how you can get a far more in-depth text for the same price or often less.
