Abstract
Recent developments in special techniques and their application to the study of heredity in man have led to exciting advances in a field that has always been of interest to pediatricians. Dr. Penrose has attempted to bring together in this small volume enough advances to "whet the readers' appetite for descriptions of other parts of the subject elsewhere." By design, a consideration of developments in human biochemical genetics, with exception of the hemoglobins, has been omitted. Included in eight chapters are discussions, by six distinguished contributors in addition to the editor, that are concerned not only with new knowledge in the areas of chromosomes, hemoglobins and linkage, but also with the elucidation of the cytologic, biochemical and statistical techniques that have made these advances possible.
