   There are many books and reviews of molecular evolutionary topics.
Yesterday I received the one of the latest "Fundamentals of Molecular Evolution"
by W.-H. Li and D. Graur (1990).  I am just starting to read this beginners 
introduction to molecular evolution.  The examples look pertinent and the 
text well written.  Perhaps you will find this a good starting point.
