Summary
  1. Genome mapping has arguably been the single most significant advance in biomedicine in the past decade or more. A complete map of the genome of selected model organisms should revolutionize our understanding of biology. The ultimate goal, a map of the human genome, will impact hugely on the diagnosis and treatment of human genetic disorders. Principles of Genome Analysis should be invaluable to anyone contemplating genome mapping, from the experienced geneticist to the clinical researcher.
