Summary: an excellent introduction
Comment: The book is easy and refreshing to read. Assuming only a minimum of prior knowledge, all the relevant aspects are covered. The focus is on practical applications, with numerous examples, simple equations and plenty of practical advise for the user.

As should be the costum with every scientific introduction, the authors are at great pains to clarify the relationship between the different flavours of EC and to show how they historically developed.

The book does not provide much on the mathematical level, though. Not even a basic graph theoretical analysis of mutation and recombination.

This said, the book is still perfect to get you started.
