Theoretical Genetics

Originally issued in 1955, this scholarly work by geneticist Richard B. Goldschmidt sets out his theoretical approach to how genes operate and how heredity shapes living organisms. It is written for students and researchers in biology and genetics who want to engage with the field's conceptual foundations rather than its laboratory methods.

This edition is a print-on-demand reissue from the University of California Press, part of a program that returns its earlier peer-reviewed scholarship to print.
