Using model organisms from the three domains of life (Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya), this textbook explains the principle molecular mechanisms of DNA replication and shows how the process is linked to cell division. This approach allows the book to give insight into how genome…
This book is a philosophically sophisticated and scientifically well-informed discussion of the moral and social issues raised by genetically engineering animals, a powerful technology which has major implications for society. Unlike other books on this emotionally charged subje…
This book highlights selected current data and its relevance in the human health care system, offering a fundamental primer on genetics and human health. With the advent of new high-throughput technologies (for the whole genome including exome sequencing), the conventional focus…
