The development of selection index theory 70 80 years ago formally embedded economic principles in the practice of animal breeding, and many of our leading practitioners have made important contributions in this area. Animal breeders have relatively infrequently drawn on economic theory and instead have developed their own simple and practical tool kit to address the issues of prioritizing traits for genetic selection decisions and when undertaking cost benefit analysis. We know from our quantitative work that models do not have to be true in order to be useful, and the tool kit we have has certainly proved useful. It is also much more accessible than many of the highly complex theories that exist in economics. This book places this subject in its most modern context as the foundation of this subject It is an authoritative resource of the subject that will benefit researchers, students, and teachers alike.
