Genetics

The third edition is an introductory text in genetics suitable for use in the early years of degree programmes in which genetics forms a major part of the coursework, or as the sole text for genetics teaching in less specialized courses. The book covers all aspects of genetics but adopts a "molecular approach", with the gene dealt with first as a chemical structure and then as a Menedelian entity. This illustrated text makes use of boxes to cover material peripheral to the main text, and includes annotated reading lists and a glossary. It should be of interest to undergraduates.
