First published in 1966, Thompson and Thompson Genetics and
Genomics in Medicine has become an essential textbook for medical
students, genetic counseling students, students in laboratory
medicine, and more advanced trainees. With its focus on fundamental
principles in human genetics and genomics and their application to
medicine, the book has served many as a well-thumbed resource they
return to over and over. Such students can continue to depend on
this valuable text, joining those in newer fields of genome data
analysis for all they need to know about genetics and genomics
throughout their basic science training, clinical placements and
beyond. Coverage includes new discoveries-such as the functional
roles of non-coding RNAs, chromatin regulation and
epigenetics-latest technologies, and new diagnoses they are
enabling. Under an expanded title, this ninth edition has been
completely revised by a new editorial team overseeing a large cadre
of contributing authors. Support groups have also assisted to
update illustrations featuring beautiful images of those living
with genetic conditions. Comprehensive coverage of: genomes in
biology and medicine; copy number and structural genomic variation;
novel discoveries; latest technology; and new genetic diagnoses
Over 40 clinical case studies, capturing the latest challenges of
variable expression, pleiotropy, and complex disorders through new
diagnostic strategies Full-color text, illustrations, updated line
diagrams, and clinical photos End-of-chapter questions and
comprehensive answers to challenge the reader to consolidate the
