The human genome

In this volume, the first of a new series from Council of Europe Publishing, ten international experts look at the topic of the human genome from different angles, providing factual information about what the human genome is, how genomic research is affecting industry, how it is being used to improve medicine, the ethical implications of this research, what this research tells us about about our origins and our relations to animals, and whether the genome should be protected against commercial use.
