Paperback. Condizione: Good. Genome science has matured as a discipline to the point where it is now incorporated as a regular part of the genetics curriculum in universities. A Primer of Genome Science, Third Edition, bridges the gap between standard genetics textbooks and highly specialized, technical, and advanced treatments of the subdisciplines. It provides an affordable introduction to the field that is suited to advanced undergraduate or early graduate courses. Bioinformatic principles and experimental strategies are explained side-by-side with the experimental methods, establishing a framework that allows teachers to explore topics and the literature at their own pace.The Primer is organized into six chapters dealing with the scope of genomics, genome sequencing, variation and complex traits, gene expression, proteomics, and metabolomics. Each chapter includes several boxes explaining the theory behind bioinformatic methods, discussion questions, and a summary. This edition has been updated to include the latest developments in next-generation sequencing, high-volume genotyping and expression profiling, and advances in metabolomics.For StudentsCompanion WebsiteThe Primer of Genome Science Companion Website includes the end-of-chapter exercises with links and downloadable files, as well as links to all of the websites referenced throughout the textbook.For Instructors (Available to Qualified Adopters)Instructor's Resource LibraryThis resource includes all the full-color illustrations and all the tables from the textbook, in JPEG format, reformatted and relabeled for optimal readability. Also included are ready-to-use PowerPoint presentations of all illustrations and tables. …

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. Human beings have astonishing genetic vulnerabilities. More than half of us will die from complex diseases that trace directly to those vulnerabilities, and the modern world we?ve created places us at unprecedented risk from them. In It Takes a Genome, Greg Gibson posits a revolutionary new hypothesis: Our genome is out of equilibrium, both with itself and its environment. Simply put, our genes aren?t coping well with modern culture. Our bodies were never designed to subsist on fat and sugary foods; our immune systems weren?t designed for today?s clean, bland environments; our minds weren?t designed to process hard-edged, artificial electronic inputs from dawn ?til midnight. And that?s why so many of us suffer from chronic diseases that barely touched our ancestors.   Gibson begins by revealing the stunningly complex ways in which multiple genes cooperate and interact to shape our bodies and influence our behaviors. Then, drawing on the very latest science, he explains the genetic ?mismatches? that increasingly lead to cancer, diabetes, inflammatory and infectious diseases, AIDS, depression, and senility. He concludes with a look at the probable genetic variations in human psychology, sharing the evidence that traits like introversion and agreeableness are grounded in equally complex genetic interactions. It Takes A Genome demolishes yesterday?s stale debates over ?nature vs. nurture,? introducing a new view that is far more intriguing, and far closer to the truth.   See how broken genes cause cancerMeet the body?s ?genetic repairmen??and understand what happens when they fail The growing price of the modern lifestyleWhy one-third of all Westerners have obesity, Type 2 diabetes, or other signs of ?metabolic syndrome? The Alzheimer?s generationWhy some of us are predisposed to dementia What?s really normal: the deepest lessons of the human genomeThe remarkable diversity of physical and emotional ?normality.…
