Summary: Best Succinct Text for Medical Genetics
Comment: I have been teaching medical genetics to medical students and graduate students for more than twenty years, and I have been using the Jorde text for teaching medical students since it was first published.
This text is the most succinct text available to my knowledge on the topic of medical genetics. This is perfect for medical students who have relatively little time in their schedules for genetics (16 lecture hours versus 48 hours for graduate students). The text is very clear, has great examples, ties in medical applications with the scientific explanations of principles, and has a wide array of online resources readily available. With very little exception, every page is worth the reading for medical students, and is helpful for them in learning what they need to know to become fully conversant in medical genetics and well acquainted with the general principles and emerging technologies. [I wish the cytogenetics chapter were illustrated better, but this is a minor weakness relative to the other strengths in the text.]
This is not the best text available for graduate students in clinical or medical genetics if the text is to be used alone (i.e. not supplemented with articles to add deeper levels of details). For students with a full 3-credit graduate course in medical genetics, it does not have quite sufficient depth, in my opinion. I don't have any significant experience teaching undergraduates, and will leave that area to others.
All in all, these authors have put together the clearest and most concise resource on medical genetics, and I highly recommend it for any audience whose needs are for efficient and palatable material on the principles of medical genetics.

Summary: Good review of medical genetics
Comment: I did not select this book, it was required for a class I was taking, but it is a well written book. This book offers a good review of medical genetics at a moderate level. It features "case study" areas about some individual genetic diseases (i.e. hemophilia) and is user friendly.
Customer Rating:
Summary: An excellent preclinical book
Comment: This book was intended to prepare medical students to understand the basic science principles that form the foundation of clinical genetics. It is not intended to be a clinical handbook. It does an excellent job showing how the clinical genetic diseases illustrate the scientific principles of genetics. I think that it is very well written, and forms a foundation to pursue more clinical studies.
