Summary: Leon (molecular biology and public and international affairs, Princeton U.) and Diane, a science and medical writer before graduating to run an alpaca farm in New Jersey, present a textbook that can be used in a one-semester undergraduate course for students who are not science majors. The rationale is that all educated people need to know something about human genes and genomes. The topics include framing the field, genetics, the transmission of genes, biological evolution, disorders of variable genomic architecture, and populations and individuals.
