Seller's Description:
Very Good. NICE BOOK! MILD SHELF WEAR ON DUSTJACKET, A FEW LIBRARY STAMPS, NO MARKINGS IN TEXT. "Description: The announcement in June 2000 that the human genome had been sequenced--that biologists had decoded the 3 billion DNA letters spelling out all the genes that create and maintain the human body--was front-page news worldwide. Because of this achievement, medicine will be transformed, says Nicholas Wade, reporting the views of researchers who are already learning to benefit from the genome data, and who expect to make novel and sweeping advances in the years ahead. Life Script explains how the new study of genomics will help pinpoint the genetic causes of disease, permit individualized diagnostics, and lead to new treatments based on insights into the exact mechanisms of disease. It will soon be possible to test people for all the disease-related gene variants they may have inherited and thus predict, and in some cases prevent, the diseases that they are likely to develop. Medicine, Wade explains, will soon emerge from the "dark ages" of surgery and chemical poisons. Instead, genetically based remedies and pharmaceuticals will be developed. When the genome is better understood, treatments will be created for small groups or even individuals. Life Script reveals a future in which good health, even perfect health, may become the standard for everyone--at every age."
