✦ Synopsis

This book reflects practical approaches to answering a variety of biological and medical questions using DNA fingerprinting and genetic profiling in a broad sense that also includes statistical evaluation of the data. It has been written for biology, biochemistry and medical students, graduates, postdoctoral fellows, academic teachers and for all researchers in the theoretical and applied sciences wherever genetic identification and relationship analysis are required.
