About this product
Product Information
Here is a unique and comprehensive resource for human geneticists and physicians concerned with the genetic causes of diseases routinely seen in research, clinical practice, and genetic counseling. Each of the chapters covers a particular disease, describes the genetic factors involved, and define the relevant biochemical, immunological, and physiological markers. The expert, widely known contributors also detail clinical applications, with advice on how the genetic data can be used to evaluate individuals and families, interpret diagnostic texts, and manage the disease.

Reviews
"This useful reference text is not only relevant to the student seeking abasic understanding of a particular disease, it is relevant to the physicianthrough its discussion of treatments and to the genetic counselor through itspresentation of genetic risk information for families. It can also serve as asummary of research findings for investigators not working directly with aparticular disease....Covers such a broad array of human diseases that it couldserve as a supplement to courses in medical genetics or human genetics....A verysolid reference text..." --Richard H. Myers, PhD (Boston University School ofMedicine), Amyloid: International Journal of Experimental and ClinicalInvestigation, "An up-to-date discussion of the issues. For any epidemiologist working ina field where an autoimmune mechanism has been suggested, reading these chaptersis an obligation. . . . this book has an important place as a reference book inlibraries of public health." --Roberto Rona, American Journal ofEpidemiology, "Follows the tradition of excellence of the Oxford Monographs on MedicalGenetics series. . . . this text is welcome as it provides a comprehensivereview of the current state of understanding of the genetic basis of many of thecommon diseases. . . . an essential reference to have in a departmentallibrary." --R.F. Mueller (St. James's University Hospital, UK), NeuromuscularDisorders, "Comprehensive....Future generations of physicians may look back at thefirst edition of this book much the way we now perceive Osler's Priciples andPractice of Medicine, ...- as the first in a long line of episodic revisionsthat acquired many competitors along the way....The chapter on genetics andinfectious diseases...is a real gem." Reed E. Pyeritz, MD, PhD, Allegheny-SingerResearch Institute, --Annals of Internal Medicine, "The first few chapters comprise a primer in contemporary human geneticmethods. All are well referenced. This is a timely and lucid summary of currentunderstanding of remaining challenges in human genetics." --Donald L. Rucknagel(University of Cincinnati College of Medicine), American Journal of HumanGenetics, "An excellent compilation of current knowledge....The chapters are well organized and referenced....Provides an extremely useful assessment of genetic aspects of many common disorders....Should interest all geneticists, internists, and specialists in the disorders considered. The binding andlayout, including photographs, are exceptionally good, typical of the best from Oxford and reflected in the price. I use this fine book daily and look forward to subsequent editions." --Stephen Kahler, MD, JAMA, "Follows the tradition of excellence of the Oxford Monographs on Medical Genetics series. . . . this text is welcome as it provides a comprehensive review of the current state of understanding of the genetic basis of many of the common diseases. . . . an essential reference to have in adepartmental library." --R.F.
