This revised edition of a well-established classic text, now in its 15th edition, aims to establish the fundamentals of medical genetics while providing in-depth coverage of areas such as epigenetics and gene expression, which are often overlooked in genetics textbooks for students. It maintains the same approach as previous editions by striking a perfect balance between genetics as a foundational science, genetics applied to medical practice, and clinical genetics. The primary audience for this book is medical students, but it is also valuable for undergraduate students studying Genetics, Genetic Engineering, Biology, and Biotechnology. Additionally, it can serve as a reference for postgraduate and master’s programs in Molecular Genetics and Genetic Engineering. This new edition has been updated throughout, with particular emphasis on sections covering DNA technology and its clinical applications, pharmacogenetics, immunogenetics, and personalized medicine based on genetic profiles. The text also provides access to SC.com (in English), where a collection of self-assessment questions and clinical cases can be found.
