Introduction to Genetic Analysis (Introduction to Genetic Analysis (Griffiths))

by Anthony J.F. Griffiths, Susan R. Wessler, Richard C. Lewontin, Sean B. Carroll


Introduction to Genetic Analysis Overview

          The author team welcomes a new coauthor, Sean B. Carroll, a recognized leader in the field of evolutionary development, to this new edition of Introduction to Genetic Analysis (IGA). The authors’ ambitious new plans for this edition focus on showing how genetics is practiced today. In particular, the new edition renews its emphasis on how genetic analysis can be a powerful tool for answering biological questions of all types.

Introduction to Genetic Analysis Review

          This is the best general genetics text available. It covers all material well, from basic Mendelian genetics to the difficul topic of linkage analysis. The book has challenging problems for students, and the solved problems do an excellent job of introducing students to the unique problem solving aspects of genetics. If the book has one weakness, it is that the section on the physical properties of DNA is a little weak and could cover the material with more depth. This is the standard by which I judge all basic genetics texts.
