The second edition of this popular book provides an overview of the impact which recombinant DNA (rDNA) technology is having on medical practice. Called molecular medicine, this rapidly expanding area has an increasing role to play in medicine and this book addresses the importance of this challenging area. This new edition has been fully updated with the developments of the last few years. Key genes identified include BRCA1 (breast cancer) OB (obese) and those involved in DNA repair. In addition the author covers the increase in gene therapy trials and the shifting of emphasis from genetic disorders to the cancers and HIV infection.Places molecular advances in a clinical setting, making it relevant to medical students Does not include any unnecessary detail and avoids using specialist jargon Covers a very topical and increasingly vital subject as molecular techniques now impinge on every branch of medicine Is the only source of easily understandable basic information in this field Fully updated throughout with the latest developments including information on the recently identified genes BRCA1 (breast cancer) OB (obese) and those involved in DNA repair Covers the increase in gene therapy trials and the shifting of emphasis from genetic disorders to the cancers and HIV infection First edition won the 1994 BUPA prize for best medical textbook
