Genetics, 2nd Ed. Gale 4 9781410380807 9781410380791 03/02/18 A significant revision of the earlier 2003 edition, Genetics‐‐‐aimed<br />
at 8th‐12th grade students‐‐‐will consist of 250 entries covering<br />
foundational concepts, key scientific figures (e.g., Mendel),<br />
historical themes, ethical issues (e.g., cloning, GMOs), and<br />
advances in the science (e.g. DNA sequencing to test for genetic<br />
disorders, Human Genome Project).<br />
The set encompasses all of traditional genetics (such as<br />
inheritance, genes, chromosomes, and the nature vs. nurture<br />
debates) as well as coverage on medical, human, molecular, and<br />
population genetics, genomics, and proteomics. It will emphasize<br />
both biotechnology (including lab techniques used in high<br />
schools) and careers in the field. A broad array of topics such as<br />
diabetes, breast cancer, Alzheimer’s, and how genes influence<br />
disorders such as cancer & mental illness, make it of interest to<br />
general readers as well.<br />
Color photos, charts, and graphs will display the content in an<br />
engaging manner. “Further Resources” will be divided into lower<br />
and higher level recommendations. The appendix will include a<br />
guide for instructors with tips on how to use the content for<br />
various curricula.<br />
