Genetics: We Are All Unique

Offers a description of genetics and the physical nature of genes. Discusses the current evolutionary theories and the modern use of genetics in medicine, law, and ecology. Did you know that each human cell has the capacity to store the information contained in all 30 volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannica three times over?

Topics covered include cell division, genetic crosses, gene linkage and mapping, mutation, investigation of DNA, disease, and genetic engineering.
