About this title

Review

"The author does an excellent job of showing how genetics is used today (one of the major strengths of the text)." - Kurt Dubear Kroening, University of Wisconsin, USA

"Its major strength is reflected in its title: that it introduces students to genetics as a mode of analysis. Not all students will become practicing geneticists, but what they can take away from learning through this text is how to construct knowledge by analyzing data and solving problems." - Lynn A. Petrullo, College of New Rochelle, USA
