With activities and answers, reflection points and a glossary, this interactive textbook supports the ‘Fit for Practice in the Genetics Era’ competence framework, offering an introduction to the theory of genetics and then using common genetic conditions/disorders as case studies to help students apply theory to practice and examine the service user experience. Genetics is written by an experienced teacher of health care sciences and is ideal for students of nursing, healthcare and for a wide range of health care practitioners.
