Description:
This text offers a concise treatment of contemporary and relevant topics in human genetics. It begins with coverage of the fundamental concepts of genetics and heredity, then illustrates these concepts as they relate to the development of human sexual differentiation and sexuality. The book presents the role of the X and Y chromosomes, the role of hormone-controlled differential gene expression in sex determination, and the role of genetics in sexual orientation and sex-role development. Human Genetics discusses the interface between science and society; it covers the basic intellectual processes that underlie genetic analysis and gene therapy, as well as the use of cloning techniques to search for genes responsible for such human disease states as cystic fibrosis, cancer, AIDS, and mental illness. Written in an inviting and engaging style, Human Genetics meets the interests and answers the questions of today's students.
