Route Maps in Gene Technology is an exciting new
introductory textbook for first-year undergraduates in molecular
biology and molecular genetics. The subject is broken down into 140
to 150 key concepts or topics, each of which is dealt with in one
doublepaged spread. These range from basic introductory principles
to applied topics at the cutting edge of research. A control strip
along the top of the page shows the student which pages need to
have been read beforehand and which topics may be followed
afterward. In addition, at the front of the book are a selection of
‚routes, ‚ which the student or teacher may choose in order to study
a particular topic. Because courses have become more ‚modular‘ and
many students arrive at college with little or no biology
background, this approach enables teachers and students to
structure a course of study to best suit their disparate exposure
to biology.
* An exciting new concept in textbook design, allowing
unparalleled flexibility on the part of the student and the
teacher
* Covers the full range of modern molecular biology, from basic
principles to the latest applications
* Attractive, clear and simple presentation with copious
two-colour illustrations
