Title: A short guide to the human genome
Description: "Although the human genome has been sequenced, it often can be surprisingly difficult to find answers to seemingly simple questions about its characteristics. This convenient handbook, written in question-and-answer format, allows researchers and teachers alike access to basic facts about the human genome." "Using a recent assembly of the human genome sequence, Stewart Scherer has compiled answers to a broad range of questions about the structure and function of the human genome. Answers to each question a presented in a direct, straightforward style. Numerous figures and tables are included to illustrate and summarize the information."--Jacket.
