Not only did this editorial team assemble an impressive group of accomplished scientists as authors, but they produced a book of broad scope, covering a wide range of topics. In fact, it is the amazing breadth of this book that will ensure its relevance for some time to come.
This manual is relevant on many different levels and will no doubt provide any interested reader with a wealth of useful information. I for one have added this book to my collection of references on carrying out genetic studies on the underlying causes of disease and drug response in human and mouse populations. Nature Genetics
This is an edited volume that seeks to provide specialists with a guide to the study of genetic variation in the age of genomics. It will be most appealing to anyone studying human genetic variation since this is the primary area of coverage, although other model systems are touched upon. A strength of the book is its conciseness, which is achieved by limiting the contents to basic introductions of the issues and citing more comprehensive references. The Quarterly Review of Biology
