Called molecular medicine, this rapidly expanding area has an increasing role to play in medicine, and this book addresses the importance of this challenging area. Molecular medicine is relevant to many medical disciplines, e.g. internal medicine, reproductive medicine, forensic medicine and laboratory practice. This new edition has been fully updated with the developments of the last few years. Key genes identified include BRCA1 (breast cancer) OB (obese) and those involved in DNA repair. In addition, the author covers the increase in gene therapy trials and the shifting of emphasis from genetic disorders to the cancers and HIV infection. For Departments of General/Internal Medicine: provides an overview of where rDNA technology fits into present day medicine and outlines what future applications could be. As such, it provides indications of overlap between what are traditional disciplines within General/Internal medicine, i.e. microbiology and internal medicine, therapeutics and internal medicine, etc.
