Disorders of Hemoglobin: Genetics, Pathophysiology, and Clinical Management


This book is a completely revised new edition of the definitive reference on disorders of hemoglobin. Authored by world-renowned experts, the book focuses on basic science aspects and clinical features of hemoglobinopathies, covering diagnosis, treatment, and future applications of current research. While the second edition continues to address the important molecular, cellular, and genetic components, coverage of clinical issues has been significantly expanded, and there is more practical emphasis on diagnosis and management throughout. The book opens with a review of the scientific underpinnings. Pathophysiology of common hemoglobin disorders is discussed next in an entirely new section devoted to vascular biology, the erythrocyte membrane, nitric oxide biology, and hemolysis. Four sections deal with ? and ? thalassemia, sickle cell disease, and related conditions, followed by special topics. The second edition concludes with current and developing approaches to treatment, incorporating new agents for iron chelation, methods to induce fetal hemoglobin production, novel treatment approaches, stem cell transplantation, and progress in gene therapy.

Concepts in Genetic Medicine


A collection of reviews that highlight the most important issues in the development, manufacture, and commercialization of novel genetic medicines
While the field of gene therapy is still a relatively young discipline, it is rapidly evolving and is characterized by impressive scientific and medical innovation. In Concepts in Genetic Medicine, readers are offered a collection of uniformly organized and succinct reviews in the field of therapeutic genetic medicine presented by a carefully selected group of top experts. Each chapter focuses on a single, current topic and explains issues in the development of genetic treatments, critical challenges and strategies for implementing them, and future directions in research and translational applications.
Beginning with an introduction to the genetic basis of disease and a discussion of specific diseases, their etiology, and promising therapeutic treatments, the book goes on to cover vector design, genetic payloads and disease targets, vaccine vector systems, manufacture, assays, cell systems and target issues, preclinical testing, regulatory considerations, clinical evaluation, safety concerns, and commercialization.
Complete with uniformly designed illustrations and a supplementary Web site with a PowerPoint presentation for educators, this is a practical guide for physicians, scientists, allied health workers, and patient advocacy professionals attempting to develop genetic medicines for translation into the clinic.

Current Topics Human Genetics


The sequencing of the human genome has brought human genetics into a new era of study resulting in the generation of an explosive amount of information. Application of genomic, proteomic, and bioinformatics technologies to the study of human genetics has made it possible for human genetic diseases to be studied on an unprecedented scale, both in silico and in the wet lab. This volume provides up-to-date coverage of the broad range of research topics in this fascinating area. In the first part of the book, a whole spectrum of approaches to human genetics research is reviewed for both background and the latest progress. In the second, important topics related to genetic research of various complex human diseases are discussed. The robust content and diverse array of subjects allow the book to serve as both a concise encyclopedia that introduces basic and essential concepts of human genetics and an in-depth review of the current understanding of genetic research in human diseases.

Medical Genetics at a Glance

**Description**
This is an entirely new and very succinct general book summarizing genetics and its medical applications.
**Purpose**
It is primarily directed to medical students, whose time is limited, with the aim of providing a large volume of information in a study-friendly and exam-preparatory manner. This goal is beautifully achieved in an incredibly concise 100 pages of text and figures, based around three integrated sections describing, in turn, developmental biology, medical genetics, and clinical applications of genetics. The flow is deliberate. This book more than reaches its goals of providing a quick and efficient review of the subject because it is so invitingly concise and therefore intensely readable.
**Audience**
Although it might be considered redundant in a crowded marketplace for medical students, this book is extremely appealing and accessible and, indeed, other student groups may also avail themselves of it.
**Features**
The detail is greater than would be suggested from the page count alone. This is attained largely because the figures/illustrations in each chapter are superb. They are composed of beautiful and clear line drawings with pertinent interposed text. Each of the 48 chapters is composed of a simple but effective format — a single page with a figure facing a single page of text. This format is disarmingly engaging to the reader, encouraging progression through an otherwise dense subject area. The text is very well written and easy to read. The figures live by the axiom, “a picture saves a thousand words,” integrating very well with the text. The subheadings are helpful and the choice of clinical examples is appropriate, although necessarily brief. There is a good glossary and index.
**Assessment**
Although the presentation style may not appeal to all, the effective, succinct nature of the book will overcome any skepticism. Overall, this is an excellent, memorable book with a refreshing means of presentation.

This book also covers diagnostic techniques and an overview of embryonic development and teratogens. The roles of genetic counseling and screening, as well as the ethical and legal issues related to genetic screening and genetic testing are also discussed. Complete with stated objectives, definition of key terms, references, chapter summaries and end of chapter review questions with answers, each chapter is organized for optimal learning. Instructor Resources include PowerPoint Slides, a TestBank, and an Image Bank. Essentials of Medical Genetics for Health Professionals will not only have application in the classroom setting for health professions or medical students, but practicing clinicians such as physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and physicians who want to learn more or revisit genetics will also find this book a valuable, useful resource.

The latest edition (13th) released in 2007 will be posted as soon as available in ebook form.
By dividing the text into three sections Emery’s covers everything from the basic principles of genetics to clinical genetics. This book can be delved into throughout your training. The layout is spacious; the painful task of trawling through reems of dense text is avoided. In addition, summary boxes, a full glossary, and case-based and multiple choice questions, with answers, to text your understanding. What more could you ask for? This book, however, is a keep-sake for me, as a result of the graphic photographs of even the most rare of genetic disorders. A sure-fire way to ensure that you never forget the features of each condition!
