Nueva edición de un texto clásico y muy consolidado a través de sus 15 ed cuyo objetivo es sentar las bases de la genética médica a la vez que ofrece un mayor detalle en áreas como la epigenética y la expresión génica, tratados menos frecuentemente en los textos de genética para estudiantes. Sigue la misma filosofía que las ediciones anteriores ya que ofrece un equilibrio perfecto entre la genética como ciencia básica, la genética aplicada a la medicina y la genética clínica. El público objetivo son los estudiantes de Medicina, aunque también es de interés para estudiantes de grado de Genética, Ingeniería genética, Biología, Biotecnología. De forma secudaria el libro puede utilizarse como material de consulta para cursos de postgrado y máster en Genética molecular e ingeniería genética. La nueva edición actualiza todos sus contenidos, aunque especialmente renovadas son las secciones correspondientes a la tecnología del ADN y sus aplicaciones clínicas, la farmacogenética, la inmunogenética y la medicina personalizada a través del patrón genético. El texto incluye acceso a SC.com (en inglés) en el que se encuentran disponibles un banco de preguntas de autoevaluación y casos clínicos. 15a edición rigurosamente actualizada y revisada para incorporar todas las innovaciones de esta disciplina manteniendo el nivel de excelencia de las anteriores. Dividida en tres secciones reestructuradas, que facilitarán a diferentes tipos de lectores diferentes tipos de lectura y consulta: Base científica de la genética humana, Genética en medicina y medicina genómica y Genética clínica, asesoramiento y ética. Texto que constituye una herramienta fundamental para el conocimiento de esta compleja pero esencial disciplina, tanto para estudiantes de Medicina como para posgraduados que deseen mejorar su comprensión y su conocimiento de la genética. Edición original en inglés disponible en Studenconsult.com, lo que proporciona dos libros en uno.

Mexico is an extensive country with an extremely complex mosaic of landscapes. The soils of Mexico have still not been completely studied, and there are few publications available on this subject. This book provides a state-of-the-art view on Mexican soils, their geographical distribution, their use and degradation. This is a first attempt to give a systematized characteristic of the soil resources of Mexico. Land resources of the second-biggest economy in Latin America are critical for its sustainable development, and a demand for adequate soil information is high. The information contained within can be used for any soil-related research done in Mexico and in neighboring countries. The book includes detailed characteristics of soils of all the physiographic regions of Mexico with maps, photos and explanatory schemes. The book is based on the experiences of the authors in research and soil survey, as well as on the existent, mainly ‘grey’ literature on Mexican soils. The book is recommended for researchers and university readers, students of all levels and decision-makers, working in the area of soil science, environmental issues, Earth sciences, land management and nature conservation.

It has been recognized for almost 200 years that certain families seem to inherit cancer. It is only in the past decade, however, that molecular genetics and epidemiology have combined to define the role of inheritance in cancer more clearly, and to identify some of the genes involved. The causative genes can be tracked through cancer-prone families via genetic linkage and positional cloning. Several of the genes discovered have subsequently been proved to play critical roles in normal growth and development. There are also implications for the families themselves in terms of genetic testing with its attendant dilemmas, if it is not clear that useful action will result. The chapters in The Genetics of Cancer illustrate what has already been achieved and take a critical look at the future directions of this research and its potential clinical applications.
