I’m so excited about the thoroughly updated new edition of my short, sweet, and cheap Human Genetics: The Basics. Not a textbook! Just 6 chapters, covering everything genetics and genomics, from health and wellness, biotechnologies such as gene therapy and CRISPR, evolution, human history, and genetic testing. Ideal for families and biotech/pharma companies, and those with general interest in how genetics/genomics will affect us all. COMING IN EARLY DECEMBER Pre-order at https://www.amazon.com/Human-Genetics-Basics-Ricki-Lewis/dp/113866801X/ref=sr_1_19?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1474318665&sr=1-19&keywords=Ricki+LewisRICKI LEWIS is a Ph.D. geneticist, journalist, and genetic counselor.
