Recensioner i media

"Essential Medical Genetics is the perfect resource for a course on medical genetics, and is now accompanied by a regularly updated website and the FREE enhanced Wiley Desktop Edition (upon purchase of the book)." (MedReport, 9 October 2012)"I have watched this textbook from its first inception and was disappointed that there was no new edition for so many years. Having waited, the result now is excellent and it has overcome my preference for Emery's Elements as a basic human genetics text."—Emeritus Professor in Clinical Genetics"I find the reference to electronic resources particularly useful, especially for people who approach clinical genetics for the first time and are not familiar with these tools." —Dr Sixto García-Miñaúr, Imperial College London, and Hospital Universitario La Paz, Madrid, SpainReviews of the previous edition"This book is an easy to read, well illustrated introduction to medical genetics. It deals nicely with all the classical aspects of the subject..."—Black Bag, Medical Students' Society of Bristol University"...a justifiably popular introductory text."—The British Medical Journal
