Description: Genetics: A Conceptual Approach presents a modern, conceptually-driven introduction to genetic principles that emphasizes problem-solving and scientific inquiry. The book is designed for a wide range of readers, including biology and non-biology majors, and offers a balanced approach between theory and experimentation.
- A clear and accessible writing style that makes complex concepts understandable.
- An emphasis on problem-solving and critical thinking throughout the text.
- A focus on genetic inquiry, with hands-on exercises and experiments.
- A robust visual program that includes detailed figures and diagrams.
- Up-to-date coverage of the latest advances in genetics and genomics.
The book is organized into five sections:
- Fundamentals of Genetics: Introduces the basic concepts of genetics, including Mendelian inheritance, gene structure, and DNA replication.
- Molecular Genetics: Explores the molecular basis of genetic information, including gene regulation, RNA processing, and genetic engineering.
- Transmission Genetics: Discusses the inheritance of genetic traits, including chromosomal aberrations and genetic mapping.
- Quantitative Genetics: Covers the genetic basis of complex traits and population genetics.
- Evolutionary Genetics: Examines the role of genetics in evolutionary processes.
Genetics: A Conceptual Approach is an essential textbook for undergraduate students in genetics, biology, and related fields. It is also a valuable resource for scientists, researchers, and anyone interested in exploring the fascinating world of genetics.
