500			_aToday, human genetics is for everyone. It is about variation more than about illnesses, and increasingly about the common rather than about the rare. Once an obscure science or an occasional explanation for an odd collection of symptoms, human genetics is now part of everyday conversation. By coming to know genetic backgrounds, people can control their environments in more healthy ways. Genetic knowledge is, therefore, both informative and empowering. The new edition embraces the broadening of human genetics from an academic and medical discipline to an informational science that can be highly personal, yet have societal impact. Changes to enhance learning include better contrast in figures, particularly for chromosomes; additional subheads; new figures, tables, and end-of-chapter questions; and key terms with definitions at the ends of chapters
