About this title

Synopsis

Genetic Dissection of Complex Traits will present the full range of methodologies that are essential for understanding the basis of human genetic disorders, the origin of such diseases, and theories on how to determine one's genetic predisposition to certain genetic diseases.

From the Back Cover

This volume presents a long-awaited collection of state-of-the-art methods and strategies for the genetic dissection of complex human diseases and disease-related risk factors. Written by the world's leading experts in genetic epidemiology, this inspirational volume provides insights into emerging new methods and ideas on how best to tackle the impending challenges of the new millenium. These futuristic methods will help fulfill the promise of the Human Genome Project by optimizing our ability to locate these genes. In time, genetic dissection of the major human disease traits will facilitate development of custom-tailored pharmacogenetic treatments. An authentic compilation of these evolving methods has been sorely lacking, and this volume fills that void with multiple approaches to very controversial issues.
