The subject of cell biology and genetics has never been more essential
to the medical curriculum and to modern medicine - yet is widely feared
by students. This fully revised edition aims to make it as easy to
understand and remember as possible, to ensure a solid grounding in the
essential underlying principles and how they relate to clinical
practice. It incorporates the latest developments in this fascinating
and fast-moving field - including the human genome project and spin-offs
such as the thousand genome project - as well as discussion of important
ethical issues. Emerging molecular tools and laboratory techniques are
explained so that you can appreciate where new treatments for genetic
disease and screening technologies have arisen. An updated
self-assessment section matching the latest exam formats then allows you
to assess your progress and test your performance.
