Genetics: From Genes to Genomes reflects this new perspective. This book represents a new approach to an undergraduate course in genetics. It represents the way we, the authors, currently view the molecular basis of life. We integrate formal genetics - the rules by which genes are transmitted; molecular genetics - the structure of DNA and how it directs the structure of proteins; genomics and information science - the new technologies that allow gene isolation and a comprehensive analysis of the entire gene set in an organism; human genetics - how genes control health and disease; the unity of life forms - synthesis of information from many different organisms into one coherent whole; and molecular evolution - how species have evolved and diverged. The strength of this integrated approach is that students who have completed the text will have a strong command of genetics as it is practiced today by university and corporate researchers who are rapidly changing our understanding of living organisms, including ourselves; increasing our ability to prevent, treat and diagnose disease, to engineer new life forms for food and medical uses; and, ultimately, creating the ability to replace or correct detrimental genes.本书原名《GENETICS: FROM GENES 2 GENOMES W/CD ROM》。
