For all introductory genetics courses Engage students with real-world applications of genetics Informed by more than 50 years' experience and experimentation in teaching genetics, authors Mark Sanders and John Bowman share their excitement about genetics and the dynamism at work in the field with Genetic Analysis: An Integrated Approach . The authors use an integrated approach to help contextualize three core challenges of learning genetics: solving problems, understanding the connection between traditional genetics models and more modern approaches, and understanding evolution. With the 3rd Edition, the authors provide students with additional problem solving guidance and a new emphasis on real-world applications of genetics. They also strive to make learning the details of genetics easier and offer ways to facilitate group work and discussion of genetics problems and concepts. The revision incorporates key updates that keep pace with changes in the field, such as advances in CRISPR-Cas, more discussion of epigenetics and expanded coverage of genomic approaches.

I used this as my reference book for my Genetics class. It's okay for me since it provide few example and questions with answers which i can practice for my exam . Overall it was good.

This textbook was rather terrible, dry, uninteresting, and with overlong chapters.

I might have been lenient and given this textbook 3 stars, but I had it in a quarter where the professor was equally terrible.

Very well-written explanations of everything, but a little too wordy. Diagrams were very complicated when they didn't have to be. Overall, not a bad book though.
