Long considered the quintessential molecular biology textbook, for decades Lewin's GENES has provided the most modern presentation to this transformative and dynamic science. Now in its twelfth edition, this classic text continues to lead with new information and cutting-edge developments, covering gene structure, sequencing, organization, and expression. Leading scientists provide revisions and updates in their respective areas of study offering readers current research and relevant information on the rapidly changing subjects in molecular biology. No other text offers a broader understanding of this exciting and vital science or does so with higher quality art and illustrations. Lewin's GENES XII continues to be the clear choice for molecular biology and genetics.
Features & Benefits
Praised for its organization and comprehensiveness, Lewin's GENES XII covers nearly every aspect of molecular biology and genetics
NEW - contains expanded coverage of epigenetics and additional research studies and data
Revised art program offers a stunning interior design with many new figures, some reflecting new developments in the field, particularly in the topics of chromatin structure and function, epigenetics, and regulation by noncoding and microRNAs in eukaryotes
High-quality illustrations and photographs engage readers and unlock complex topics and molecular processes
The accompanying Test Bank has been updated and expanded by author Stephen Kilpatrick to include over 1,000 questions, in addition to the 750 questions and activities that are included in the Navigate 2 study and assessment tools.
Hand-selected Web Links to relevant websites are available in a list format or as direct links in the Navigate 2 interactive eBook.
The Key Image Review in Navigate 2 provides the illustrations, photographs, and tables that can be used to enhance existing slides, tests, and quizzes or other classroom material.
