Title: 18 Articles that represent the state of the art.
Review: This is the sixth annual version of this book which publishes these peer reviewed articles that represent the state of the art as it exists today. This is a science that is changing so fast that in order to keep up it is necessary to go to this approach rather than a single author writing a book as will happen when it settles down.This edition contains 18 articles written by a who's who of the field. They come from virtually every major research institution in the country and there are several entries from other countries.I particularly enjoyed the look back over sixty years of medical genetics written by Alfred Knudson. In medical school during World War II, he was in at the beginning of the modern era of genetics research and specialized in cancer research.The other articles are all of high caliber. Some of course, more interesting than others. But all are worth reading, you never know when you will pick up a useful idea.
Is the review positive or negative?
