内容简介

The Fifth Edition of Human Heredity addresses the needs of human genetics for students and instructors as never before. Michael Cummings, a leading author in genetics education, uses student-friendly writing to explain complex concepts, including the correct amount of detail at an appropriate level for non-science students. The text's organization is flexible for instructors to choose the order of chapters to fit their courses. After Chapter 3, Transmission of Genes from Generation to Generation, instructors may assign the chapters in any order. Also, each chapter is outlined to easily identify the central ideas. New features for the Fifth Edition include Case Histories at the end of each chapter and references to the many available genetics databases, which makes the material even more accessible and meaningful for students. New and revised Internet Activities, also at the end of each chapter, allow students to use web technology to enhance your learning experience. Gene Discovery Lab CD-ROM and web site is available for students to explore a molecular biology laboratory. This virtual lab allows students to make the connection between the lab and classroom. Text correlations in the experiments reinforce the relationship between scientific concepts and how science is conducted. You can manipulate live data from GenBank (available through a search engine) to perform virtual cutting-edge research. Opening vignettes and Guest Essays also help students to learn and relate to human genetics. InfoTrac College Edition, an online library of more than 700 publications, is an additional resource for you to learn more about current research in human genetics.

I usually hate reading college textbooks, but this one was great!! All the information was broken down well, and it made learning in class so much easier. My professor had the powerpoints that go along with the book, but the information was sometimes vague, so I definitely recommend getting the book :)

Book came in in âAcceptableâ condition as a rental. No tears but a lot of wear on the cover, a tell-tale that the bookâs been used by many, many students. Pages are all intact, just the paperback cover is very worn. Great information and I refer to the book a lot.

An expensive book that is a relatively simple read. Its nice that the book is easy to understand, but I wouldn't recommend buying it if you can find at your school library.
