520 8 |a Annotation  |b An authoritative overview of the rise of medical genetics over the past century, from eugenics to the brink of personalized medicine.<br /> & bull;<br /> & bull;Explains the differential susceptibility to specific genetic traits and disorders among different ethnic groups.<br /> & bull;Explains the role of genes in causing disease, and the prospects that genetic information will help prevent, treat, and cure diseases.<br /> & bull;Presents the ethical issues and social context of medical genetics, from eugenics to the brink of a truly personalized medicine. This very readable overview of the rise and transformations of medical genetics and of the eugenic impulses that have been inspired by the emerging understanding of the genetic basis of many diseases and disabilities is based on a popular nonmajors course, 'Social Implications of Genetics, ' which Gillham gave for many years at Duke University. The book is suitable for use as a text in similar overview courses about genes and social issues or genes and disease. It gives a good overview of the developments and status of this field for a wide range of biomedical researchers, physicians, and students, especially those interested in the prospects for the new, genetics-based personalized medicine.
