This is a great study guide for the American Board of Medical Genetics exam. It covers cytogenetics and molecular genetics in depth, and also discusses other important concepts such as Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, Population Genetics, Genomics, and single gene and complex inheritance.

3. Evil Genes: Why Rome Fell, Hitler Rose, Enron Failed and My Sister Stole My Mother s Boyfriend Evil Genes: Why Rome Fell, Hitler Rose, Enron Failed and My Sister Stole My Mother's Boyfriend
from Prometheus Books
Price: $19.11

Customer Review:
This is a good book, and it is based on abundant scientific studies. While I don't buy into the "strong programme" of sociobiology -- whereby behavior is 100% genetically determined -- this book helped me understand a family member and various colleagues with deep psychological problems.

5. Essentials of Genetics (6th Edition) Essentials of Genetics (6th Edition)
from Benjamin Cummings
Price: $109.95

Customer Review:
This is for people that want to learn the basics of genetics. It is a simple book with illustrations that you can find in any genetics book that has pictures. The written material is the same drab of any genetics book. Only buy this if you need it for a class. If you are getting it for a light read,... more info

6. Genetics: Analysis of Genes and Genomes Genetics: Analysis of Genes and Genomes
from Jones & Bartlett Publishers
Price: $111.16

Customer Review:
Absolutely horrible book. Chapters are written very poorly. They don't follow a pattern, but if I had to say there were one it would be tell you the big picture first so you have no idea what they're talking about then go into detail about each of the units and then after you've read the whole... more info

7. The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention
from Elite Books
Price: $17.79

Customer Review:
I have been using Energy Psychology in my counseling practice daily for the past 11 years. Until now, I've had to ask clients to "take my word for it" that these techniques could bring about profound change. Of course, once a client actually experiences the power of these interventions, they become... more info

9. Human Molecular Genetics, Third Edition Human Molecular Genetics, Third Edition
from Garland Science/Taylor & Francis Group
Price: $76.23

Customer Review:
HMG3 is a great book for those looking to review the large and growing field of human molecular genetics. It lacks the molecular biological detail that dedicated textbooks such as MBOC contain, but has a large amount of useful information regarding experimental approaches in human molecular... more info

from Mosby
Price: $58.45

Customer Review:
The book reads very well for a genetics textbook. The pictures helped explain some concepts and the questions at the end of the chapters were a nice summary.

11. The Journey of Man: A Genetic Odyssey The Journey of Man: A Genetic Odyssey
from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
This was a major letdown. While one might be somewhat entertained by it, you won't come away from it with any understanding of anything. The writing is vague and the scientific methods are hardly mentioned. I suppose the author or his editors were afraid of scaring people. Here's the entire... more info

12. Saxons, Vikings, and Celts: The Genetic Roots of Britain and Ireland Saxons, Vikings, and Celts: The Genetic Roots of Britain and Ireland
from W. W. Norton
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
This is the book I've been looking for! I found Bryan Sykes to be a thoroughly engrossing author and storyteller as well as an accomplished scientist.
His overview of British history (as well as the occasional personal anecdote) coupled with the story of collecting samples in the various... more info

13. Schaum s Outline Of Genetics Schaum's Outline Of Genetics
from McGraw-Hill
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
I agree with Doc Dave in his earlier review that this is in many ways a better text than the standard ones out there. It's clearer, more concise, covers the advanced topics quite well considering its brevity, and as the Doc says, it's a fraction of the price of the actual texts.
I used this... more info

14. Modern Genetic Analysis: Integrating Genes and Genomes Modern Genetic Analysis: Integrating Genes and Genomes
from W. H. Freeman
Price: $111.00

Customer Review:
This book is extremely difficult for people who are first being introduced to genetics to understand. Since it is being used in beginning genetics courses, this is disturbing. Perhaps if you already have an understanding of the basic concepts of genetics this would be a more useful book.

15. The Case against Perfection: Ethics in the Age of Genetic Engineering The Case against Perfection: Ethics in the Age of Genetic Engineering
from Belknap Press
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
A Case Against Perfection, which I read in two sittings over 5 hours in one afternoon. I simply could not put the book down, Sandel proposes both sides in the debate of Cloning/Perfomance Enhancement/Gene Therapy etc... Sandel makes you guess and second guess, then triple guess your own beliefs on... more info

16. Deep Ancestry: Inside The Genographic Project Deep Ancestry: Inside The Genographic Project
from National Geographic
Price: $10.36

Customer Review:
This is a great complement to the Seven Daughters Of Eve. The story of where we, the human race, originated is so essential to understand! This book details not only this but how his and his colleagues' work are helping people get back to their roots.
They are helping people understand where... more info

17. Seeds of Destruction: The Hidden Agenda of Genetic Manipulation Seeds of Destruction: The Hidden Agenda of Genetic Manipulation
from Global Research
Price: $24.95

Customer Review:
This book seems at first glance to be primarily about genetically modified organisms (GMO), but is actually a frightening history of the power elite's largely successful attempt to gain control over food and food production. In the last 50 years food has gone from being an agricultural product grown... more info

18. An Introduction to Genetic Analysis (INTRODUCTION TO GENETIC ANALYSIS (GRIFFITHS)) An Introduction to Genetic Analysis (INTRODUCTION TO GENETIC ANALYSIS (GRIFFITHS))
from W. H. Freeman
Price: $144.88

Customer Review:
After having studied this book whole-heartedly for an entire semester, I feel that it just doesn't do a very decent job of relating the material in an inviting manner.
The topics are typically unorganized and almost seem to ramble, resulting in frequent, incoherent jumps. As such, I was forced... more info
