Emphasizing the concepts essential to students who will continue their own self-education as physicians, the Second Edition features major advances that have occurred in this rapidly evolving field. In addition to an entire new chapter on ethical issues and another devoted to future developments in gene therapy, the Second Edition also covers new understanding of triplet repeat diseases … molecular cytogenics … fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) … sex determination … X inactivation … genetic imprinting … and much, much more. An entire new chapter on the Human Genome Project, written by the director, Francis Collins, is yet another improvement found in the Second Edition.
