Genetics for Nurses aims to provide a clear, comprehensive, rigorous, and balanced introduction to genetics at the college level. Designed for the core subject on genetics offered to undergraduate students of nursing, this book presents the theoretical concepts in a lucid style along with colour illustrations, numerous review questions and case-specific problems pertaining to genetic disorders that help students identify and diagnose clinical conditions. The content of this book has been framed based on the curriculum designed by the Nursing Council of India. The topics have been grouped into five units in such a way that the book takes the students from classical genetics through clinical genetics and diagnosis to the latest advances in genetics, adding emphasis to social and ethical issues.
