Professor Max Levitan has thoroughly revised and updated this established textbook on human genetics, to incorporate the great changes in human genetics over the last decade. He reviews the basic laws of genetics, the common genetic diseases, and their causes in humans, drawing upon numerous examples from human biology and medicine. He presents the latest data and techniques, including the molecular recognition of gene expression in humans, and the use of restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) to map human genes and identify genetic diseases. New chapters have been added on human immunogenetics, oncogenes, and cancer. The author explains complex concepts with clarity, and uses an extensive array of diagrams and illustrations, including electron micrographs and clinical photographs of all common genetic disorders. Advanced undergraduates and graduate students in human genetics; biology students who have had an introductory course in Mendellian genetics; medical students interested in human genetics.
