In this book, based on an earlier book by the author in the Lecture Notes series, this exciting and fast moving field is condensed into a brief but balanced review. Principles of genetics are presented in an up to date and readable way, together with an explanation of both classical and modern genetics experiments which enable the reader to gain an understanding of the methodology of genetics. The format is logical and concise, with chapters on the molecular aspects of genetics, transmission genetics, regulation of gene expression, and extranuclear inheritance. Topics of particular interest included are a discussion of rapid DNA sequencing and gene cloning, regulation of gene expression, the action of steroid hormones and a discussion of the genetics of populations. Each chapter contains exercises for the student, with answers supplied at the end, and there is a useful glossary for quick reference. Ugrad. text.
