Using what has been learned from analyses of bacterial and eukaryotic genomes as its basis, the book unites evolution, genomics, and genetics in one narrative approach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the book youve been looking for! A refreshing, new take on your classic genetics textbook. Its integrated approach successfully weaves basic and advanced topics, and leads students through the latest advances in the field. * André Antunes, Edge Hill University *\u003cbr\u003eA very well written book, which is easy to read and which includes many interesting examples, figures and videos. It ties different fields of genetics and molecular biology into a coherent entity using an evolutionary perspective. * Anneli Hoikkala, University of Jyvaskylä *\u003cbr\u003eAn authoritative introductory genetics text which embeds all key concepts within their logical evolutionary framework. * Mike Jackson, Newcastle University *\u003cbr\u003eThere are many textbooks on genetics that take a purely molecular biology approach. It is good to have an evolutionary perspective on genetic knowledge. * Jan Hoole, Keele University *\u003cbr\u003eI think that this book could be superior (to other textbooks) in linking the theory with the current knowledge of the genomic architectures of bacteria and eukaryotes and the state-of-the-art analytical approaches and technologies to address evolutionary questions. * Paolo Franchini, University of Konstanz *\u003cbr\u003eGenetics text books can be rather dry. This one shows the relevance of genetics, molecular biology and evolution to modern life and also the impact of previous events (wonderfully explained) on humans today. * Judith Lock, University of Southampton *\u003cbr\u003eA great textbook, easy to read (almost conversational writing style), excellent combination of text and colour figures. I would definitely recommend it. It is fresh and up to date, and the big advantage of this book is that it combines various disciplines at the undergraduate level, making for a strong cohesion in teaching. * Casper J. Breuker, Oxford Brookes University *\u003cbr\u003eMeneely et al. use considerably teaching skills to capture the attnetion of students with a modest background in chemistry and biology. I particularly admire their attention to the three themes of their textbook. New topics incorporate what was learned in earlier chapters and students benefit in the review it provides and the integration of new knowledge it promotes. This is a volume that I hope will go through many editions. * Elof Axel Carlson in The Quarterly Review of Biology, Volume 93 *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1: Darwin's Finches: Evolution, Genomes, and Genes 2: The Central Dogma of Molecular Biology 3: Genome Structure, Organization, and Variation 4: Descent with Modification: DNA Replication and Mutation 5: The Inheritance of Single Gene Traits 6: The Cellular Basis for Mendelian Genetics 7: X-linked Genes and Sex Chromosomes 8: The Inheritance of Multiple Genes 9: The Locations of Genes on Chromosomes: Linkage and Genetic Maps 10: Human Genetic Mapping, Genome Wide Association Studies, and Complex Traits 11: Exchange and Evolution 12: Transcription:  Reading and Expressing Genes 13: Translation:  From Nucleic Acids to Amino Acids 14: Networks of Gene Regulation 15: Genetic Analysis of Cellular Processes 16: The Genetics of Populations 17: Metagenomes: Genome Analysis of Communities","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48732767945047,"sku":"9780198712558","price":66.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780198712558.jpg?v=1719998313","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/genetics-9780198712558","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
