Summary: The book examines how sophisticated tools of genetic analysis and manipulation are being developed in laboratories all over the world and considers the impact they will have on issues that scientists consider, including the causes of aging and death, the nature of the brain, and quality of life. Drawing from many research streams-such as advances in molecular and cell biology, imaging, and informatics-genetics is shown to encompass a view of nature more varied than previously imagined by the scientific community. --publisher.
