Genetics is the newest of all sciences - nothing useful was known
about inheritance until just over a century ago. Now genetics is
exploding, and before long we will have the complete code, written in
three thousand million letters of DNA, of what makes a human being.
Introducing Genetics takes us from the early work of Mendel to the
discovery of DNA, the human gene map and the treatment of inborn
disease. No one can afford to be ignorant of genetics. This book is the
perfect introduction.
