Description

Recent trends of the study of molecular evolution are briefly reviewed in relation with the theory of population genetics. Similar aspects of the population genetics theory and statistical mechanics are pointed out, and it is suggested that the both could adequately viewed as branches of population science. In order to grasp them in a unified way, an attempt is made of an axiomatic formulation of population science, by which some characteristics of models of statistical mechanics, population ecology, and population genetics are described.
