Lingkup Pembahasan:
Buku ini mengambil pendekatan transdisciplinary berfokus pada pemahaman baru dari epigenetik dan gen - interaksi lingkungan untuk ilmiah, biomedis, toksikologi, lingkungan, gizi, evolusi dan peraturan aspek. Buku ini berfokus pada pandangan dari banyak ilmuwan yang luar biasa bekerja di bidang yang berbeda terhadap epigenetik dan interaksi lingkungan kesehatan.
Bagian I dari buku menekankan interaksi antara konsep keragaman genetik, epigenetik, kesehatan lingkungan, epidemiologi molekuler, nutrisi dan teori evolusi. Bagian II berfokus pada aspek keturunan, Bagian III di aspek lingkungan dan toksikologi. Bagian IV meluas pada aspek gizi.
Bagian V pemahaman baru epigenetik dan interaksi kesehatan lingkungan secara rinci dalam studi kasus bidang seperti ginekologi, onkologi, menular penyakit, asma, atau penyakit neurodegenerative. Yang terakhir Bagian VI mengeksplorasi konsep untuk menerjemahkan pemahaman baru dalam kebijakan kesehatan masyarakat dan strategi termasuk aspek etika pokok.
Buku ini ditargetkan pada para ilmuwan, lingkungan, ahli gizi dan kesehatan, genetika, ahli dalam ilmu komunikasi, pembuat kebijakan, para ahli dari standar pengaturan otoritas, guru serta scientifi konsumen Cally mengalami tertarik pada aspek interdisipliner di bidang ini.
