With minimal technical terminology and jargon, Genes and DNA facilitates conceptual understanding. Eschewing the organization of traditional genetics texts, the authors have provided an organic progression of information: topics are introduced as needed, within a broader framework that makes them meaningful for nonbiologists. The book encourages the reader to think independently, always stressing scientific background and current facts. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Genetics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85053877 650 0 Molecular genetics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85086586 650 2 Genetics.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D005823 650 2 Genetic Phenomena.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D055614 650 2 Molecular Biology.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D008967 650 7 Genetics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/940117 650 7 Molecular genetics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1024797 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Lurquin, Paul F.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n83074018 776 08 |iPrint version:|aOmoto, Charlotte K.|tGenes and DNA.|dNew York : Columbia University Press, 2004|w(DLC) 2003062584 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=107229|zOnline eBook.
