Synopsis

This book introduces the structure of chromosomes and their abnormalities. In this third edition a brief history of genetics and classification of chromosomes have been added. In the chapter on chromosomal abnormalities, an attempt has been made to provide information related to additional genetic syndromes than in previous editions.

In order to better understand various chromosomal abnormalities, the text is augmented with related illustrations. The other chapters discuss genes, inheritance, population genetics, prevention and treatment of genetic diseases. The study of patterns of inheritance is important for the diagnosis, prognosis and estimation of the recurrence risk in other family members.
