I'm hoping that someone can recommend a review article or textbook with a good introduction to avian systematics/phylogenetics? I have a strong science background (PhD in molecular biology, although a while back), but I confess that I lack the knowledge of statistics, etc. to thoroughly understand most of the articles I read on assembling bird haplotypes into clades, tracing evolutionary trees, etc. What I need (I think) is an explanation that starts the discussion on a very basic level and then gets more involved in the details...
Any ideas?
Thanks!
