Description
For courses in genetics in departments of biology, genetics, and agriculture.
From the best-selling authors of Concepts of Genetics, comes the new Genetics: A Molecular Perspective. Building on the strength of the authors' proven ability to write solid textbooks for undergraduates, Genetics: A Molecular Perspective emphasizes those things that students should come to understand and take away with them, not the details that must be memorized and are soon forgotten.
