Product Description
Science in Focus is a broad-based science series that answers these questions and many more. It gives a clear introduction to curriculum topics and is an easy reference tool for research. The clear, well-written text is generously illustrated with large colour photographs and diagrams. Fact and History boxes extend the information, and Evidence boxes suggest practical investigative activities.Genetics explores one of the fastest-growing areas of science with topics that affect us all, such as:
* what DNA fingerprinting is and why it is carried out
* is genetic engineering safe, and could 'designing life' bring untold benefits or massive trouble
* how researchers are tackling genetic diseases, and the growing use of bio-engineered medicines.
