Principles of Genetics

Principles of Genetics is one of the most popular texts in use for the introductory course. It opens a window on the rapidly advancing science of genetics by showing exactly how genetics is done. Throughout, the authors incorporate a human emphasis and highlight the role of geneticists to keep students interested and motivated. Principles of Genetics continues to educate today''s students for tomorrow''s science by focusing on features that aid in content comprehension and application. The book reflects the excitement of this new era, presenting the fundamental principles of genetics from an evolutionary perspective informed by genome analysis. This book also intends to attract researchers toward multidisciplinary research and to introduce them to new paradigms in genomic science. This book intends to provide geneticists with the tools needed to understand and model the genetic variation for quantitative traits based on genomic data and equip statisticians with the uniqueness and ideas in relation to the exploration of genetic secrets using their computational skills.
