Understanding genetics : DNA, genes, and their real-world applications  Cover Image DVD DVD

Understanding genetics : DNA, genes, and their real-world applications / David Sadava.

Sadava, David E. (Added Author). Teaching Company. (Added Author).

Summary:

"Understanding genetics is like sitting down to work a massive puzzle. With each piece you examine, think through, and solve, you glean a new and amazing insight into humanity. Put several pieces together, and you can treat or cure a disease, save a developing fetus from a fatal birth defect, catch a criminal, or reunite a family ... Each lecture begins with a helpful story that illustrates the importance of genetics. The course explicitly outlines the connections between the science of genetics and the health-related problems that plague us in modern society, and illuminates how studying genetics can be instrumental in solving those problems."--Publisher's website.
