The Gale Encyclopedia of Genetic Disorders, 2nd Edition
Book Preface
The Gale Encyclopedia of Genetic Disorders is a unique and invaluable source for information regarding diseases and conditions of a genetic origin. This collection of over 430 entries provides in-depth coverage of disorders ranging from the exceedingly rare to the very well-known. In addition, several non-disorder entries have been included to facilitate understanding of common genetic concepts and practices such as Chromosomes, Genetic counseling, and Genetic testing. This encyclopedia avoids medical jargon and uses language that laypersons can understand, while providing the thorough coverage of each disorder that medical professionals will also find beneficial. The Gale Encyclopedia of Genetic Disorders fills a gap between basic consumer health resources, such as single-volume family medical guides, and highly technical professional materials.
Each entry discussing a particular disorder follows a standardized format that provides information at a glance. The rubrics used are:
- Definition
- Description
- Genetic profile
- Demographics
- Signs and symptoms
- Diagnosis
- Treatment and management
- Prognosis
- Resources
- Key terms
