Description: "It defines terms of the post-genomic era and includes not only strictly genetic terms, but also genetics-related words encountered in the scientific literature." --Quarterly Review of Biology
"The latest edition of A Dictionary of Genetics is a fantastic reference and very useful to me. It is by far the most scholarly dictionary I have had the pleasure of using that strongly interfaces with evolutionary biology."-- Bruce G. Baldwin, Curator of the Jepson Herbarium, Integrative Biology, University of California at Berkeley.
"King, Stansfield and Mulligan defeat the notion of a dull dictionary. If you look up a definition you get carried away and find dozens of other things that you want to read about. It is equally useful and stimulating for young students and old timers working in the field."--Walter J. Gehring, Division of Cell Biology, University of Basel
