For professors who are thinking of using this book, as a student I felt it engaged me immensely. For students who are contemplating shelling out the $$ for the book, I don't quite know what to tell you. The book is very easy to read, lots of colorful pictures, not just dry text. Each chapter starts off with a semi-personal story about the topic at hand. My teacher didn't use it that often for work but I found it helpful to support what I was learning in class. Great reference. Human Genetics is a very interesting topic and can get any lay person to talk about their views on what kind of world they want to see.

I needed it for class, she gets too caught up in social causes and debates. Having to deal with emotional issues in a science book is trash. If I wanted a book on morals, and social causes, with the emotions I would buy one. I want a science book, cut and dry. She should get a life.
easy to read text February 19, 2006
