This book -Cells in Evolutionary Biology - evaluates the evolution of cells themselves and the role cells have been viewed to play as agents of change at other levels of biological organization. Chapters explore Darwin's use of cells in his theory of evolution and how Weismann's theory of the separation of germ plasm from body cells brought cells to center stage in understanding how acquired changes to cells within generations are not passed on to future generations. The study of evolution through the analysis of cell lineages during embryonic development dominated evolutionary cell biology until usurped by the switch to genes as the agents of heredity in the first decades of the 20th century. Discovery that cells exchanged organelles via symbiosis led to a fundamental reevaluation of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and to a reorganizations of the Tree of Life. Identification of cellular signaling centers, of mechanisms responsible for cellular patterning, and of cell behavior and cellular condensations as mediating the plasticity that enables phenotypic change during evolution, provided powerful new synergies between cell biology and evolutionary theory and the basis for Evolutionary Cell Biology.  aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights  aEnglish 7aBiology, life sciences2bicssc  abiological organization  acells  aevolution of cells  arole1 aHall, Brian K.4oth1 aMoody, Sally A.4edt1 aMoody, Sally A.4oth0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/2824870zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication  c92919d92919
