Jones and Bartlett Publishes New Second Edition of Lewin’s Essential Genes
March 12, 2009 – Sudbury MA. -- Jones and Bartlett Publishers announced the publication of their latest text in the area of molecular biology and molecular genetics, Lewin’s Essential Genes, Second Edition. This text is a revision of Benjamin Lewin’s original Essential Genes published in 2006. Lewin is a pioneer in the field of molecular biology research.
The new author team, consisting of Jocelyn E. Krebs, of University of Alaska at Anchorage, Elliott S. Goldstein, of Arizona State University, and Stephen T. Kilpatrick, of University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown, has been praised for creating a student-friendly undergraduate text that covers the latest findings in the field.
“This book has been revised with two general principles in mind,” said Krebs, “to provide the most up-to-date understanding of Molecular Biology and Molecular Genetics based on current research, and to make this material accessible and student-friendly, so that the text is appropriate for a broad range of students.”
This edition provides many new pedagogical components to help instructors engage students in the topics and incorporates a number of teaching and learning resources, including an online student study guide.
“This has been an exciting project to be a part of.” said Cathleen Sether, Publisher. “I am fortunate to have worked with such a knowledgeable and professional author team.”
