Human Reproductive Genetics cover

Human Reproductive Genetics: Emerging Technologies and Clinical Applications presents a great reference for clinicians and researchers in reproductive medicine. Part I includes a brief background of genetics and epigenetics, probability of disease, and the different techniques that are being used today for analysis and genetic counseling. Part II focuses on the analysis of the embryo, current controversies and future concepts. Part III comprises different clinical scenarios that clinicians frequently face in practice. The increasing amount of genetic tests available and the growing information that patients handle makes this section a relevant part of the fertility treatment discussion. Finally, Part IV concludes with the psychological aspects of genetic counseling and the role of counselor and bioethics in human reproduction.

"This is a wonderful first edition in a new and rapidly expanding field of human reproductive genetics. It is a useful book for its narrow-intended audience. It is an excellent resource for students, residents, and fellows. The wide range of contributors from across the globe adds to the book's fund of knowledge. I see this becoming an important resource to have in the future and I hope the authors will be able to keep it up to date given the evolving nature of the content." --Doody
