Writing in a fluid, conversational style for non-science majors, James R. Brennan covers the multi-faceted field of human genetics. He begins with the basic fundamentals of cell structure and reproduction and progresses to a fusion of Mendellan genetics and modern concepts such as chromosomal functional and molecular genetics. The author explores areas such as heredity, chromosomal abnormalities, and genetic diseases. He examines the moral and ethical dilemmas posed by developments in the field. The chapter structure of this easy-to-understand book permits a flexible sequencing. Various study aids are included: chapter reading lists and summaries, topical review questions, and a glossary.
