by William S. Klug, Michael R. Cummings (1994)
Concepts of Genetics by Klug and Cummings is a comprehensive and widely used textbook designed for the undergraduate students in biology, biotechnology, and related field, that introduces students to the fundamental principles of genetics, combined with the classical Mendelian concepts with modern approaches.

Since the last edition, the science of genetics has passed a major milestone: The DNA sequence of the human genome has been determined. This edition has been prepared with the new issues, questions, insights, and technologies in mind. Recent discoveries have been incorporated into the text, and the pedagogy has been enhanced, balancing new information with fundamental principles.

Designed for comprehensive genetic courses (not human genetics). As with previous editions, this new fifth edition is praised for its engaging writing style, emphasis on research and experiments, numerous end-of-chapter problems, full-color design, and helpful pedagogy. New features include a new chapter on the genetics of cancer, updated and expanded molecular and genetics coverage, new and updated questions and problems

"The scientific study of networks, including computer networks, social networks, and biological networks, has received an enormous amount of interest in the last few years. The rise of the Internet and the wide availability of inexpensive computers have made it possible to gather and analyze network data on a large scale, and the development of a variety of new theoretical tools has allowed us to extract new knowledge from many different kinds of networks. The study of networks is broadly interdisciplinary and important developments have occurred in many fields, including mathematics, physics, computer and information sciences, biology, and the social sciences. This book brings together for the first time the most important breakthroughs in each of these fields and presents them in a coherent fashion, highlighting the strong interconnections between work in different areas. Subjects covered include the measurement and structure of networks in many branches of science, methods for analyzing network data, including methods developed in physics, statistics, and sociology, the fundamentals of graph theory, computer algorithms, and spectral methods, mathematical models of networks, including random graph models and generative models, and theories of dynamical processes taking place on networks"--

Presents the theories, controversies, and latest scientific thinking on how the Solar System, the Earth, and the first biological organisms came to be and how the latter changed and adapted for survival. Includes a glossary of terms.
