Reddit reviews Introduction to Quantitative Genetics (4th Edition)

If anybody stumbles onto this discussion later, I found this book to have a fairly good treatment of basic variance component and heredity-related information.

So I heard that Introduction of Quantitative Genetics is good for this type pf information. I have Neal's Introduction to Population Biology and they reference that as a good source of Effective Population Size models. I feel you could probably do this stuff outside of R, like in excel or whatever if you are mathy but in order to find out what R package to use for something like this, you will have to look up the current literature (scholar.google.com) and look at their methods to see which packages they used.
