Molecular Genetics: Therapeutic Approaches And Genetic Manipulation (2 Vols. Set)

We are gratified by the favourable reception given to the first edition, and we thank the many people who wrote pointing out errors or making suggestions. Inevitably we could not incorporate every good suggestion into this new edition without an unacceptable increase in length. As we enter the new millennium, the pace of change in molecular genetics continues to accelerate. As before, we expect readers to use the Internet as the main source of factual detail, and we have included a new preliminary section to reinforce this message. We have concentrated in this edition on the principles rather than the details, but we hope that the comprehensive index will give readers quick access to the factual information that is used to illustrate the principles. Apart from general revision and updating, and some rearrangement of material reflects the increasing importance of these topics in molecular genetics. This book has been redesigned keeping the view of contemporary study of molecular genetics in twenty three chapters in two volumes. Undoubtedly, this book becomes indispensable source of references for teachers, scholars and readers
