Reviews

This excellent book is a must-have for any library, or anyone deeply interested in genetics and genomics in medicine. The writing is detailed yet easily understandable, and readers will come away much more knowledgeable on the subject. This second edition is a much needed and exceptionally well-executed update to the original version. - Mark F. Sanders, PhD, UC Davis College of Biological Sciences
