Genetics is an
integrated domain of any advanced field of biology in 21st century.
However, successful development of future applications will depend on the basic
domain knowledge. Genetics: Fundamentals and Applications cover maximum aspects
of genetics and it is aimed at readers from multidisciplinary fields of
biology. It is an effort to use simple language and examples throughout the book
for better understanding of principle of genetics and its application in modern
era. Few specific chapters have been incorporated to emphasize the application
aspects of genetics in disease pathology and therapeutic areas.
Basic principles
of genetics (first 19 chapters) have been described in a cognized way with
simplest example sets for beginners at under graduate and post graduate level.
In contrary, Application part (last 5 chapters) especially chapters covering
cancer genetics, apoptosis and stem cell are written elaborately for post
graduate students and researchers in biomedical sciences.
