In recent decades, few disciplines have experienced the explosion of knowledge and research that genetics has. Inspired in part by controversies and the publicity that this new information generates, many of today's students come to a course in genetics with great enthusiasm. Sustaining this enthusiasm while at the same time teaching students about the beauty, logical clarity, and unity of the subject can be a challenge for any teacher. In the fourth edition of Genetics: Principles and Analysis, Dan Hartl and Beth Jones have written a text that will provide you and your students with a clear, comprehensive, rigorous, and balanced introduction to genetics at the college level. It is a guide to learning a critically important and sometimes difficult subject. But the tools for learning extend beyond the confines of the textbook. Your students will have the opportunity to become active participants in the learning process by making full use of today's teaching and learning technology. Developed as an integrated and unified program, no other textbook will engage your students and connect them to the subject of genetics like Hartl/Jones!

近几十年来，很少有学科能像遗传学那样经历知识和研究的爆炸式增长。在一定程度上受到这些新信息所产生的争议和宣传的启发，今天的许多学生都带着极大的热情来学习遗传学课程。保持这种热情，同时向学生传授这门学科的美感、逻辑清晰和统一性，对任何教师来说都是一种挑战。在第四版《遗传学。丹-哈特尔和贝丝-琼斯写了一篇文章，将为你和你的学生提供一个清晰、全面、严谨、平衡的大学阶段的遗传学介绍。它是学习一门极其重要、有时也很困难的学科的指南。但是，学习的工具已经超出了教科书的范围。您的学生将有机会通过充分利用当今的教学和学习技术，成为学习过程中的积极参与者。作为一个综合统一的程序开发，没有其他教科书能像Hartl/Jones那样吸引你的学生，并将他们与遗传学学科联系起来!
