Edited by Jan A. Witkowski and John R. Inglis, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory
In 1911, the influential geneticist Charles Davenport published Heredity in Relation toEugenics, advancing his ideas of how genetics would improve society in the 20th century.
It became a college textbook and a foundation for the widespread eugenics movement in theUnited States. Nearly 100 years later, many of the issues raised by Davenport are again beingdebated, in different guises. In this new volume, prominent academics discuss themes fromDavenport’s book—human genetic variation, mental illness, nature vs. nurture, human evolution—in a contemporary context. Davenport’s original book is reprinted along with theessays. This book will be useful to historians of science as well as those interested in the socialimplications of human genetics research—past, present, and future.

Index
By David H. Hall, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York; Zeynep F. Altun, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York
Derived from the acclaimed online “WormAtlas,” C. elegans Atlas is a large-format, full-color atlas of the hermaphroditic form of the model
organism C. elegans, known affectionately as “the worm” by workers in the field. Prepared by the editors of the Wormatlas Consortium, David H. Hall and Zeynep F. Altun, this book combines explanatory text with copious, labeled, color illustrations and electron micrographs of the major body systems of C. elegans. Also included are electron microscopy cross sections of the worm. This laboratory reference is essential for the working worm biologist, at the bench and at the microscope, and provides a superb companion to the C. elegans II monograph. It is also a valuable tool for investigators in the fields of developmental biology, neurobiology, reproductive biology, gene expression, and molecular biology.
