Reviews

In a very innovative way, the authors start the exploration of the concept of epigenetic medicine as interventions to treat epigenetic disorders. Although epigenetics is the subject of multiple books currently, very few provide a link between causation, pathology, and intervention. These authors touch on the beginning of a new field in genomic medicine, which should be the subject of many publications in the future. --Doody's Review
