Finally a laboratory manual on Human Genetics. While there are a number of excellent textbooks on the market, a laboratory manual on the subject is missing. Taneri and her co-authors have now written a course book based on a standard curriculum in human genetics. Each chapter equals one practical unit of the course and topics are ranging from basic in human inheritance to genetics in major disease cluster (complex disease, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases) to web-based resources and bioinformatics to personalized medicine to genetic counseling. The authors all have a high level research background in human genetics and are actively involved in teaching and counseling. The book is designed to be used alongside standard human genetic textbooks. A timely publication for a growing market.
