The study guide and solutions manual is a hit or miss type of book. It includes the odd number answers but with the even numbers you are stuck guessing if your answer is right or wrong. At my university we used (mastering genetics) and some of the answers on the website contradicted the answers in the book or vice versa. I did not know which is correct and found it very frustrating so I had to go to office hours to find out the correct answer. This edition is out of print, but later editions are available. DO NOT use this manual for the 8th edition of Essential of Genetics by William S. Klug. This book is B-23 reviewed!Content Review: on the eve of the successes of the Human Genome Project (HGP). The HGP project and Celera Corporation have significantly changed our study and understanding of genetics. I imagine the current editions of this textbook are much changed. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries the men and women (and there were many women in this field) who studied genetics were part mathematicians and part diligent investigators. Indeed, much of the opening chapters of the 3rd edition read like a math text with discussions of probability, combinatorics, logic, and problem solving. Experiments had to be cleverly designed so that the genotypes [DNA] of all gametes can be determined accurately by observing the phenotypes [observable characteristics] of the result offspring. This is necessary because the gametes and their genotypes can never be observed directly.This was the fact of life that made these heroic genetic scientists a close knit group. Every chapter references the many scientists who made slow progress observing generations of bacteria, and famous model organisms such as c. elegans and d.
