Book Synopsis Genetics of Complex Disease by : Peter Donaldson
Book excerpt: Genetics of Complex Disease is a concise text for final year undergraduate and first year graduate students. Healthcare professionals and other biomedical scientists trying to come to grips with the impact of new genetics research will also find the book useful. After explaining genetic variation and defining complex diseases, the text shows how and why complex diseases are investigated. The focus then changes to areas where there is strong evidence for the genes/alleles involved. Important ethical consequences are also covered, as are the methods used to generate new genetic data.
