"Genetics : from genes to genomes represents a new approach to an undergraduate course in genetics. It reflects the way we, the authors, currently view the molecular basis of life. We integrate: formal genetics: the rules by which genes are transmitted. Molecular genetics: the structure of DNA and how it directs the structure of proteins. Digital analysis and genomics: recent technologies that allow a comprehensive analysis of the entire gene set and its expression in an organism. Human genetics: how genes contribute to health and diseases, including cancer. The unity of life-forms: the synthesis of information from many different organisms into coherent models. Molecular evolution: the molecular mechanisms by which biological systems, whole organisms, and populations have evolved and diverged."--Prface.
