3.0 out of 5 stars
This textbook is on the web!
This textbook provides a good overview of the conceptual foundations of mouse genetics, but it is rapidly becoming out of date as it was last published in 1995. Thus the text doesn't address the current impact of the sequencing of various genomes, especially that of the mouse. ... Save your money and buy a newer textbook.

This review is from: Mouse Genetics: Concepts and Applications (Hardcover)

If you want to know everything about the history of the lab mouse, what inbred strains, outbreds, congenics etc. are and how one can turn one into the other, the is the best source. However, it does not contain the latest technologies and data (e.g. speed congenics or genomics). The content is available for free on the web (see the mouse genome informatics/mgi website of JAX aka TheJacksonLaboratories) but I still prefer to have the book on my desk instead of clicking through half a dozen of links. Recommended if you can afford it, else use the web version.
