Writing this second edition of Biochemical Genetics proved to be
more difficult than I had anticipated. The fixed format of the
series meant that the addition of new material was made possible
only by the dele tion of old. Since the book is intended for a
student audience, I have retained the historical approach of the
first edition and added new material only when it demonstrates a
principle more effectively. At the time of writing, we are
witnessing an information explosion resulting from the application
of recombinant DNA technology to all manner of problems. I have
added a sixth chapter indicating the impact of this work on our
concepts of gene structure. I should like to thank Ed Byard, Bill
Evans, Charles Schorn and Ed Ward, colleagues in the Biology
Department at the University of Winnipeg, and Andrew Spence, a
student in the department, for their comments on the manuscript of
the second edition, and to reiterate my thanks to all those in the
Department of Genetics at the University of Sheffield who commented
on the first edition."
