Random drift and the shifting balance theory of evolution.

The word “drift” has been used rather frequently in population genetics, but not always in the same sense. The author is probably responsible for its introduction by using it in papers in 1929, though with no intention of giving it a technical meaning. It has, however, come to be so used and thus is in need of careful definition.
