The traditional topics of pedigree interpretation and cytogenetics are thoroughly covered, but in a modern context of genes as functional DNA sequences with a particular map location. Medical genetic terms are set out in the style of the highly successful "Immunology:An Illustrated Outline" an earlier book in the series and can be used as a glossary or revision aid.
