This dictionary is the first dictionary of genetic damage to be published. A Dictionary of Genetic Damage is provided for spelling reference, categorization reference, and information on the enormity of the genetic catastrophe. Note that A Dictionary of Genetic Damage also exists as an appendix to Genetic Catastrophe! Sneaking Doomsday? by the same author.

It has been recognized for almost 200 years that certain families seem to inherit cancer. It is only in the past decade, however, that molecular genetics and epidemiology have combined to define the role of inheritance in cancer more clearly, and to identify some of the genes involved. The causative genes can be tracked through cancer-prone families via genetic linkage and positional cloning. Several of the genes discovered have subsequently been proved to play critical roles in normal growth and development. There are also implications for the families themselves in terms of genetic testing with its attendant dilemmas, if it is not clear that useful action will result. The chapters in The Genetics of Cancer illustrate what has already been achieved and take a critical look at the future directions of this research and its potential clinical applications.

This book constitutes the first serious message of the genetic catastrophe and the possibility of derailed evolution. Moreover, this book contains the first dictionary of genetic damage to be published.

Stephen Jay Gould (1941-2002) was a leading critic of human behavioral genetics, human sociobiology, evolutionary psychology, and the modern evolutionary synthesis. Why Gould Was Wrong explains why Gould's claims were horribly wrong.

Nils K. Oeijords research since 1999 shows that we have a worldwide general genetic catastrophe (GGC) due to general local and global manmade mutagenic pollution. The GGC began in the 1700s, increased in the 1800s, and exploded in the 1900s. The HIGH and INCREASING prevalence and the HIGH and INCREASING incidence of gene damage and genetic diseases all over the world logically prove the existence of the GGC. Nils K. Oeijord is a science writer, a former researcher (plant production), a former assistant professor (mathematics), and a former science and mathematics lecturer (high school). He is the discoverer of the general genetic catastrophe, and has earned a place in Whos Who in the World (28th Edition), in Great Minds of the 21st Century (5th Edition), and in 2000 Outstanding Intellectuals of the 21st Century (2011 Edition).

"very useful as a quick desk reference for students, professionals, andnonprofessionals." -Quarterly Review of Biology "a trove of valuable clinical information" -New England Journal of Medicine This extensively expanded and thoroughly revised new edition provides a uniquely user-friendly and clearly written tool for navigating the latest terminology, concepts, theories, applications, and technology in these dynamic disciplines. This second edition includes a vast range of terms and concepts dealing with biochemistry, cell and developmental biology, immunology, hereditary diseases,and molecular evolution, through to the state-of-the-art in genomics and proteomics. The nearly 25,000 alphabetically arranged entries are explained in a concise yet detailed manner, including ample cross-references, literature citations, databases, tables, and illustrations.
