Human heredity : principles and issues (5th ed)

As one of the leading authors in genetics education, Michael Cummings understands how to present the right amount of detail at the appropriate level to explain complex concepts.

Cummings has refined this edition to give even greater emphasis on appropriate detail and level by increasing human applications in every chapter, both in-text and end-of-chapter, and by streamlining the notably clear writing style by eliminating needless jargon.

Reorganization of select chapters and new pedagogical elements bring greater focus to the most important concepts for readers. And significant updating throughout ensures readers have access to the new research in this dynamic field.
