Genomics and Personalized Medicine: What Everyone Needs to Know®

Raises as many questions as it answers
Very readable for the beginner. Educating myself on genomics, Snyder's book raised as many questions in my mind as it answered. This is exactly what I'm after. I'm now looking for a genes dictionary/encyclopedia (perhaps online) that relates known genes (when abnormal) to known diseases. Any suggestions?I'd also like to get an understanding of how to interpret the gene scores we see in crime shows. Again, any suggestions? Altogether, very worthwhile.

but I feel like I learned a lot reading this
This book was very interesting. Genomics isn't my field, but I feel like I learned a lot reading this. It's quick. Mostly conceptual, which seems to be challenging with such a deep, technical field. Glad I picked this up.

Excellent, pithy summary of the state of the art
- clear and concise- broad and comprehensive- excellent introduction to cancer immunotherapy- some of the downsides and limitations of genomics (and omits generally) were perhaps not adequately covered

For any biology/genetics enthusiasts!
Really insightful piece of literature, taking a variety of components from a typical Bioscience BSc and writing it in a way that anyone with a basic knowledge of biology could understand. Really had some interesting points and good anecdotes.

Trop général pour en retirer quelque chose
L'auteur nous explique l'intérêt de l'analyse génétique. On sent que tout tourne autour de ce qu'il a pu faire pour se soigner.Le problème est que l'on reste dans un grand niveau de généralités.
