Handbook of Statistical Genetics is widely regarded as the reference work in the field. However, the field has developed considerably over the past three years. In particular the modeling of genetic networks has advanced considerably via the evolution of microarray analysis. Bringing the text completely up to the minute, the third edition of the handbook contains a much expanded section on Network Modeling, including five new chapters covering metabolic networks, graphical modeling, and inference and simulation of pedigrees and genealogies. Other chapters new to this edition include Human Population Genetics, Genome-wide Association Studies, Family-based Association Studies, Pharmacogenetics, Epigenetics, Ethics and Insurance.
