Principles of genetics Item Preview.

In preparing this edition, we have been guided by four main goals:. To focus on the basic principles of genetics by presenting the important concepts of classical, molecular, and population genetics carefully and thoroughly. We believe that an understanding of current advances in genetics and an appreciation for their practical significance must be based on a strong foundation. Furthermore, we believe that the breadth and depth of coverage in the different areas of genetics— classical, molecular, and population—must be balanced, and that the ever-growing mass of information in genetics must be organized by a sturdy—but flexible— framework of key concepts.

To focus on the scientific process by showing how scientific concepts develop from observation and experimentation. Our book provides numerous examples to show how genetic principles have emerged from the work of different scientists. We emphasize that science is an ongoing process of observation, experimentation, and discovery. To focus on human genetics by incorporating human examples and showing the relevance of genetics to societal issues.

Experience has shown us that students are keenly interested in the genetics of their own species. Because of this interest, they find it easier to comprehend complex concepts when these concepts are illustrated with human examples. Consequently, we have used human examples to illustrate genetic principles wherever possible. We have also included discussions of the Human Genome Project, human gene mapping, genetic disorders, gene therapy, and genetic counseling throughout the text.
