Human Genome in Health and Disease
«
"... an excellent primer on the molecular and biochemical underpinnings of disease. The author walks us through how the genome is structured and regulated, interspaced with detailed explanations of how changes in the genome result in biological function and human disease. He includes personal touches that help humanize the material, ..." - The Quarterly Review of Biology, 95(2).
"Although the material is appropriate for advanced biology students, this volume would also be suitable for those with limited knowledge of biology due to the detailed and careful walkthrough of the topic matter that makes it approachable for nonspecialists, especially for fledgling computational biologists or clinical geneticists, and even for nonacademics who wish to better understand their own genome." - William Gillis, Biological Sciences, State University of New York College at Old Westbury

The human genome is a linear sequence of roughly 3 billion bases and information regarding this genome is accumulating at an astonishing rate. Inspired by these advances, The Human Genome in Health and Disease: A Story of Four Letters explores the intimate link between sequence information and biological function. Les mer
