Caracteristici noi
NEW ORGANISATION
* The book has been streamlined from 21 to 19 chapters to present a more modern organization of topics. For example, the authors have eliminated a number of classical experiments which are irrelevant to modern genetic analysis, to provide a book where the emphasis is on how genetics is practiced today.
NEW DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER
* Evolutionary development is an exciting field of research. 'Evo Devo' studies are at the forefront of science, raising new questions about the genetic relationships among animals. The development chapter has been built from scratch by Sean Carroll to address the changes in this promising field of study.
NEW DESIGN
* Lewin's Essential Genes and Watson's Molecular Biology of the Gene are the inspiration for the new single column design in the new edition of IGA. The simple and clean presentation will facilitate student learning of the material. Both the design and new colour palette, consisting of deep red, blue and brown colours provide a more authoritative feel to the book.
INCREASED COVERAGE OF GENOMINCS THROUGHOUT
* New important biological questions are being raised now that the human genome has been sequenced. With this in mind, the authors have placed increased emphasis on genomics throughout.
INCREASED FOCUS ON MODERN RESEARCH
* The authors integrate the most recent examples from modern research wherever possible.
NEW END-OF-CHAPTER PROBLEMS
* To build on the strengths of the problem sets, the authors provide 10% more new problems at the end of every chapter.
