Good service!

I just want to mention that I am very happy with my Genetics book!! The book is really interesting and easy to understand! And about the service, it was excellent! It arrived just on time and the book was in magnificent conditions!!

Not for the uninitiated

This is a good book if you already have a foundation in genetics. Oddly, the book is marketed as your basic undergrad genetics text. Yet instead of just explaining the concepts, it leads you on the path of discovery of how researchers figured all this stuff out. If you are still learning the subject, you may do better with Klug/Cummings/Spencer. If you are going into higher levels of biology and want to learn some research methods, this is a good book.

Genetics: From Genes to Genomes

The book came in very quickly and I am very happy with the purchase.

Updated and Expanded Third Edition now Available

This book is usually supplied by the publisher as part of a bundled package. When ordered with the ISBN 0072848464 this is the book that is supplied. When ordered with ISBN 0073227382 this book as well as a book on Microbiology which appears to be a cut down version of the publishers primary microbiology text. As is common with a lot of text books, this book has a series of authors. Leland Hartwell is the 2001 winner of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. The other authors, four more Ph.D.'s, are nearly equally distinguished. What makes this book such a success is that they then then work with Ruth Veres who is a professional writer to take their scientific writing and turn it into something the average person can read. Further it was her task to take the input from the author team and present it in one style, one voice. This is the third edition of the book, with updates to reflect the new discoveries, revisions and rewording to reflect suggestions and comments from past readers, and a new artistic design that is both more user friendly and easier to distinguish the most important comments.

Great general Genetics textbook

I think this is a great text book for General Genetics class! In fact, this is the text we have been using at UC Berkeley. The authors are not only clear & concise in delivering their topics, but also able to formulate challenging questions to test students' undestanding.
