There is growing enthusiasm in the scientific community about the prospect of mapping and sequencing the human genome, a monumental project that will have far-reaching consequences for medicine, biology, technology, and other fields. But how will such an effort be organized and funded? How will we develop the new technologies that are needed? What new legal, social, and ethical questions will be raised? Mapping and Sequencing the Human Genome is a blueprint for this proposed project. The authors offer a highly readable explanation of the technical aspects of genetic mapping and sequencing, and they recommend specific interim and long-range research goals, organizational strategies, and funding levels. They also outline some of the legal and social questions that might arise and urge their early consideration by policymakers.

When one thinks of mathematical problems posed over the past 30 years, one name automatically leaps to the fore - Murray Klamkin. In this book Andy Liu and Bruce Shawyer present problems that he proposed over his career. It contains the 'quickies' (problems with quick and neat solutions) he proposed in 'Crux Mathematicorum,' his longer problems, and also problems which were posed in tribute to him after he died. Solutions are provided in the second half of the book.
