内容説明
There are many books about genetics, but none have addressed the specific primary care aspects of genetics. This book addresses these and covers all the issues relevant to primary care. There is a user- friendly description of molecular biology terms and techniques which many GPs have no experience of, but which is increasingly relevant in the consulting room. Other aspects particularly relevant to primary care are covered, such as the skills needed by primary care workers to undertake genetic consultations together with discussions of models of care that will be helpful. The book covers in detail topics such as genetic mechanisms, ethics and the genetic tests available.
