| I'm thankful to the publisher for sending me a free copy of this book, but "teach yourself" is not the name I would give it. Self-education is impossible with it unless you happen to learn in alphabetical order. The book is a glossary, not a self-tutor.
<br />
<br />If you would like a systematic learning resource, the Schaum's outlines tend to be at least decent.
<br />
<br />(Now I wonder what's going on with this site. The ISBN number of this book (0-658-01208-8) is the same as the one in my hand, but the "look inside" pages are completely different. Either the publisher or Amazon has made a mistake.)

This is a great way to read and understand Genetics at a more understandable level. Thanks<br>Chris
I knew almost nothing about genetics prior to reading this book. Now I can talk about things like genotypes and phenotypes with confidence. One of the best parts about this book is that the author takes the time to discuss the history and people behind this fascinating topic.<p>I recommend this book for anybody wanting to learn about genetics. |

| This book is great because it covers all the bases in statistical genetics and features authors who are some of the founders in the field. My favorite chapter is on the Newton Morton number - mine is 2 :) Definitely a good read for anyone interested in a growing field.
There has been a lot of development of novel statistical methods in the last decade which has resulted in a better understanding of genetic disorders. There are not many existing books on the subject. This volume is a collection of excellent papers written by some of the renowned experts in the field. The papers range from the basic concepts in genetic epidemiology to applications of some of the most recently developed statistical techniques like CART . The precautions that one needs to take while analyzing genetic data have also been addressed in details. The final chapter by Newton Morton is a treat to read and provides a great overview of the future directions in the field. Overall the book will be very helpful to all genetic epidemiologists in their research. |

| Eleven Gateways To Quantum Spirituality is Leonard Sweet's attempt to connect the United Methodist church with its past that strongly helped spark and shape the two major revivals movements in American history. With this book Sweet is hoping to capture some of that momentum that it has lost over the years by looking to the past. Leonard picks out 11 characteristics or genes that he believes the Church and more specifically the United Methodist Church needs to incorporate if it is to survive and be the kind of church that God called it to be. He incorporates such concepts as using good timing (the timing gene), taking advantage of new technology (the wired gene), and having good faithful music (the music gene). This book is not that much different and contains some same content and ideas as his other books AquaChurch and A Cup of Coffee at the Sweet Soul Cafe which are both better books. Although if you want to brush up on your Methodist history this is the book for you. Although I am strongly Lutheran I enjoyed the book anyway. |
