Essentials of Genetics

Ocena: 0 (0 głosów)
For courses in Genetics found in biological sciences, agriculture, forestry, and health sciences. Essentials of Genetics presents a succinct overview of the discipline with balanced coverage of both classical and modern genetics. While emphasizing concepts and problem-solving, the authors' clear writing and up-to-date coverage of new research captures students' interest. Classic and modern experiments and applications illustrate the nature of scientific discovery, helping students connect the science of genetics to the issues of today. NEW - "How Do We Know What We Know?"-Reflecting a modern approach to teaching biology, this introductory section asks students to be aware of the most important issues that have framed genetics research and to constantly ask themselves how we discovered this information. The focus on the "process of science" helps students understand how scientific information is discovered, rather than merely memorizing the outcomes. Chapter Concepts-Help organize students' study so they can more easily comprehend and remember the most important ideas in each chapter. Chapter Review-Serves as a summary of the 5-10 key points established in the chapter. Flow diagrams-Highlight the process of landmark experiments which established the major concepts in genetics. Online media tutorials-Clarify the most difficult topics in genetics, helping students master key concepts. Each module contains an overview with animations, interactive exercises, and self quizzes. PROBLEM SOLVING Insights and Solution Sections-These end-of-chapter sections encourage students to think analytically about problems. Questions are posed and detailed solutions or answers are provided. These sections stress problem solving, quantitative analysis, analytical thinking, and experimental rational. Problems and Discussion Questions-Problems of varying difficulty level conclude each chapter to optimize the opportunity to practice and reinforce problem-solving. 300 entirely new problems added throughout-Many based on research data derived from primary genetics literature.

NEW - Conversion of major headings to narrative statements-To better summarize the main point for each of the major sections in the book, section titles have been converted from brief headings to complete narrative statements. NEW - Modernization of genomics-Chapters 17-19 covering genomics have been significantly revised to reflect the completion of sequencing of the human genome in 2003. New topics include the history leading up to genome sequencing, future research and the impact of new discoveries on society in general. NEW - Integration of molecular genetics and population genetics-Chapter 22 (Population Genetics)has been revised to emphasize the impact of molecular genetics on the study of population genetics. This modern approach to the topic provides detailed coverage of genetic drift and the impact of founder effects, population bottlenecks, and inbreeding.
