Epigenetics

Rate this book
The concept of epigenetics has been known about since the 1940s, but it is only in the last 10 years that research has shown just how wide ranging its effects are. It is now a very widely-used term, but there is still a lot of confusion surrounding what it actually is and does. Epigenetics is a new textbook that brings together the structure and machinery of epigenetic modification, how epigenetic modification controls cellular functions, and the evidence for the relationship between epigenetics and disease. It is a valuable source of information about all aspects of the subject for undergraduate students, graduate students, and professionals.

Many errors throughout the text and figures. Author is a scientific writer. Many concepts are explained, with little to no conclusions or significance interjected. The figures were a let down as well, many of them adapted from primary sources that honestly did it better.
