Genetics: A Conceptual Approach Malcolm Kripke

The branch of biology which deals with the study of genetic variation, genes and heredity in organisms is known as genetics. The primary principles of genetics are trait inheritance and molecular inheritance mechanisms of genes. It is also involved in the study of the function and behavior of genes. Genetics studies the gene structure, function, variation and distribution in various contexts such as the cell, organism and population. Some of the major sub-fields within this discipline are epigenetics and population genetics. It examines the genetic processes that work with an organism's environment and experiences in order to influence its development and behavior. This textbook presents the complex subject of genetics in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. It is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex theories and principles in this field. For all those who are interested in genetics, this book can prove to be an essential guide.
