This fourth edition contains clinical material and references. It features traditional areas of medical genetics, as well as contemporary medical genetics, including a new chapter on non-traditional inheritance.
A comprehensive manual on medical genetics designed for medical students. In this edition, most chapters have been substantially rewritten or replaced. It contains a significant amount of clinical material in sufficient detail to answer many questions and lists comprehensive references. The book features a balanced presentation of traditional areas of medical genetics, such as chromosomal basis of heredity, with contemporary areas of medical genetics, such as non-traditional inheritance (eg imprinting, mitochondria inheritance). This edition contains more current information, achieved by condensing old and adding new, without substantially increasing the text. Molecular breakthroughs are covered in detail withut over-emphasizing the topic at the expense of fundamental principles. This manual also includes colour photomicrographs of recent breakthroughs in technology, such as Fluorescence In Sitre Hybridization (FISH) and highlights the important ongoing research into determining disease predisposition.
