Gr 7-10-In this installment of the "Inquire & Investigate" series, Mooney provides a succinct overview of the human genome. The introduction and the six brief chapters open with a clever cartoon. Reminiscent of a textbook's style and organization, Mooney briefly explains the featured topic, including the simple (how genes work) to the complex (the ethical dilemmas surrounding genomic testing and editing). The language is accessible for middle and high school readers. Side notes, callouts, key questions, and world connections highlight noteworthy subjects throughout the text. There are activities and experiments related to genetics. Casteel uses a variety of illustration styles, including photographs and computer-generated images. Charts, graphs, and time lines enhance the reader's understanding of the material. VERDICT A useful addition to middle and high school collections that rely on print materials for report writing.-Erica Thorsen, Albemarle High School, VA
