Mendelian Inheritance in Man - A Catalog of Human Genes and Genetic Disorders

"The principal source of information on inherited diseases for all clinical geneticists... In addition to the erudite entries in the books, the references given with each description represent a magnificent bibliography of clinical genetics. With McKusick's leadership and continued interest in gene mapping, the book also represents an important compendium of the location of genes on specific chromosomes." -- "New England Journal of Medicine"
