This book is not suitable for you if you want a detailed genetics book covering all the topics (You better read "Principles of Genetics"). However, it offers really good material for revision of the topic and perhaps the best (and the most) questions available for classic genetics at its level.
I don't advise to study molecular genetics from this book-too short explanation and awful drawings. But explanation methods of classic genetics are quite simple and fully understandable.
To sum up-perfect for Mendelian Genetics and useless for Molecular Genetics.

Tomorrow! A Genetic exam! Aaah! I need some knowledge put into my brain... Quick! Ah, thank God for Schaum's Outlines! ... OK, you must have begun to feel some suspicion, because I translated it.
The text's pretty helpful, but the layout might not seem interesting for learners. But then when tomorrow's exam, would you really care that the book's wholly black and white?
