Abstract

If you are a medical student, house officer, or practicing physician, unversed in human genetics but wanting a quick orientation, then this may be the book for you. It is brief, inexpensive, and gratifyingly up-to-date. In the 5 years since the first edition of this small book, there have been many important developments in human genetics—the use of hybrid cells for genetic analysis, the discovery of multiple structural genes for the Y chain of Hgb F, appreciation of the frequency of the XYY syndrome, the use of amniocentesis for antenatal diagnosis, and so forth.
