This six volume Encyclopedia is the most comprehensive, detailed treatment of molecular biology and molecular medicine available today! The Encyclopedia provides a single-source library of molecular genetics and the molecular basis of life, with a focus on molecular medicine. Genetic screening, gene therapy, structural biology, and the technology and findings of the Human Genome Project are discussed in detail. The articles that comprise the set are designed as self-contained treatments. Each of the nearly 300 articles begins with an outline and a key word section which includes definitions. These features assist the scientist or student who is unfamiliar with a specific subject area. A glossary of basic terms completes each volume and defines the most commonly used terms in molecular biology. Together with the introductory illustrations found in each volume, these definitions enable readers to understand articles without referring to a dictionary, textbook, or other reference.
