For decades, Emery and Rimoin’s Principles and Practice of Medical Genetics has provided the ultimate source for practicing clinicians to learn how the study of genetics can be integrated into practice. Developed in parallel to the sixth edition, and featuring 174 original contributions from the many authors of the full set, this one volume work expertly condenses and synthesizes the most clinically relevant content, for convenient desk reference. Helping to bridge the gap between high-level molecular genetics and individual application, it follows the multi-volume set in encompassing scientific fundamentals, full spectrum discussion of major inherited disorders, and actionable therapies. Clinically oriented information is supported by concise descriptions of the principles of genetics, research approaches, and analytics to embrace the evolving population of students, researchers, and practitioners who are integrating their work to provide advanced diagnosis, prevention and treatment of human disease. This print volume is complemented and enhanced with online access to the complete text, online-only references, and high quality illustrations on www.expertconsult.com. Features 174 summarized contributions concisely discussing advances in cancer genetics, genomic technologies, and molecular genetics Contains hundreds of full colour illustrations supporting users with identification, concept illustration, and method processing Enhanced with full text online access, high quality illustrations, and online-only references at www.expertconsult.com

Emery and Rimoin's Principles and Practice of Medical Genetics
This book has been written for those whom an understanding of modern medical genetics is important in their practice as clinicians, scientists, councellors and teachers.
"This book traces the development of genetics in medicine from the first descriptions of inherited diseases more than 300 years ago to the new applications resulting from mapping and sequencing the human genome.
The first of two reports, this volume analyzes existing forecasting methods and processes.
Janice Post-White was an oncology nurse who thought she knew what life with cancer was about--until her four-year-old son was diagnosed with leukemia.
Essentials of Medical Genetics for Health Professionals will not only have application in the classroom setting for health professions or medical students, but practicing clinicians such as physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and ...
The emphasis of this book is on those aspects of medical genetics most useful in a modern clinical practice. Clinical aspects of molecular genetics research have been incorporated throughout the spectrum of genetically determined diseases.
