The contributors to this volume of 16 articles are academics in biophysics, biology, medicine, and genetics in the US and the UK. The initial article, by Mary F. Lyon of Oxford U., gives a personal history of research on the mouse genome over the last 50 years. The remaining articles consist of case studies on topics that include human migration and population, databases and tools for browsing genomes, protein structure, molecular mechanisms for genomic disorders, modular medical models, and issues over the patenting of genes.
