	Genetics: Principles and Analysis
	By: Daniel L. Hartl, Elizabeth W. Jones ISBN: 076370489X Publisher: Gareth Stevens Publishing Release Date: 15 January, 1998 Bioscience book rank: 1431029	Unfortunately I sold this book during undergrad once my genetics course was over. Now at Medical School, I am rebuying it cause I know it works. Good explanations, pictures, ect. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a straight explanation...it's great if you are not a research based person. Genetics is confusing. True or false? Genetics is quite enjoyable. True or false?<p>The answer can be true to either question, depending on which book you use to learn genetics for the first time. <p>Fortunately for me, our Biology department @BU chose Prof. Hartl's "Genetics." The book comes with nice diagrams to demonstrate certain concepts such as maternal effect and the Hardy Weinberg principle.<p>Of course, this book isn't perfect; it could use some improvements. Chapter 12--especially the section on bicoid genes in drosophila--took a while to slog through. <p>I suppose Prof. Hartl tried his best here, but this topic is confusing to begin with. It would have helped if pg 530-541 were rewritten. (I know that sounds very vague and fuzzy, but something about those pages just didn't click like other sections of the book).<p>Even if your Bio department doesn't use this version of "Genetics," I would recommend treating it as a reference book. <p>Good luck with genetics! Believe me, it CAN be fun and interesting....<p>-TheDeliman<p>ps: To be honest, the GeNETics sections at the end of each chapter were quite useless. Readers won't read much if they were written out of the Fifth Edition.... :)
	Genetics and the Manipulation of Life: The Forgotten Factor of Context (Renewal in Science)
	By: Craig Holdrege ISBN: 0940262770 Publisher: Lindisfarne Books Release Date: 01 September, 1996 Bioscience book rank: 1328748	In the past few years people outside of the academic pursuit of genetics have been fed terms like secret to life, code of life, and other central dogmas. Very misleading, very wrong. Holdrege does an excellent job of explaining why this is so in terms that is understandable to anyone. It may not spark a revival in Goethe's method but it will dispel the illusions cast by advertisment, the media, and science itself. A must buy for a philosopher, a scientist, or anyone looking to enlighten themselves above what CNN headlines feed you.
