<p>From the reviews of the first edition:</p>
<p>"To the best of our knowledge, this is the only book written and compiled to focus on human genetics and genetic disorders in relation to people of the Indian subcontinent. It is hoped that the reader will have a good overview and background information on the key subjects ranging from social and cultural aspects to the application of the science of human genetics in the practice of modern clinical medicine." <br /><em>(Dhavendra Kumar)</em> <br />"This is excellent and long overdue" <br /><em>(Professor Bhuki Parekh, London School of Economics, UK)</em> </p>
<p>"Genetic disorders of the Indian subcontinent is a comprehensive and timely book that addresses the burden of genetic disorders in the people of the Indian subcontinent. … There is an admirable attempt to explain the complex interaction of age-old beliefs, social practices, cultural influences … . This book is an invaluable resource to all clinicians dealing with genetic disorders among this population not only in the subcontinent but even in other countries such as UK where there is a sizeable population from this region."
