ISBN 10: 1633889467 ISBN 13: 9781633889460
Seller: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. This refreshingly clear layperson's overview of genetics shows how heredity actually works and how it is studied in plants and animals, clearly explaining these concepts without an overload of technical jargon. The author devotes separate chapters to such popular topics as: the genetic differences between males and females, the potential effects of radiation on the human genome, eating irradiated or genetically modified foods, cloning, genetic therapy, stem-cell research, nature vs. nurture, and how genes are related to many diseases, psychological disturbances, and possibly other behaviors. The book concludes by addressing common misconceptions about genetics and emphasizing the discipline's potential for curing some diseases, extending human lifespan, enhancing medicine and agriculture, and generally improving society.

The Wonder of Genetics : The Creepy, the Curious, and the Commonplace
Language: English
Published by Prometheus Books, Amherst, NY, U.S.A., 2010
ISBN 10: 1616142146 ISBN 13: 9781616142148
First Edition
Hard Back. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Printing. 337 Pages Indexed. White boards with red spine lettering and pointed corners. No defects noted.Interior text pages are flawless. In this refreshing and entertaining guide, distinguished geneticist Richard V. Kowles explains the importance of genetics-the science of inheritance and physical and chemical traits-and examines its broad applications to just about every area of life. As Dr. Kowles demonstrates, it really is no exaggeration to say that genetics is everywhere. Kowles begins by leading readers through the science involved in genetic research to show how heredity actually works and how it is studied in plants and animals, clearly explaining these concepts without an overload of technical jargon. He then turns to the many applications of genetics in our daily lives. Separate chapters are devoted to such popular topics as the potential effects of radiation on our chromosomes; eating irradiated or genetically modified foods; creating pest-resistant plants; gene therapy; nature versus nurture; and how genes are related to many diseases, and possibly psychological disturbances and behaviors. If you have ever considered why it would be wise not to mate with a close relative, how Dolly the cloned sheep got her name, or what it took to make seedless watermelons, The Wonder of Genetics will answer these questions and many more.
