This book covers basic molecular biology, likelihood-based statistics, physical mapping, linkage analysis, parametric and nonparametric linkage, hidden Markov models, and Bayesian approaches.

Thankfully, some brave souls are willing to serve as guides to rigorous application and understanding of statistical approaches to genetically informative dataCavan Reilly is among them. … The book is self-contained and well organized, covering a substantial breadth of the core topics in genetics and genomics. … this book is a valuable reference source for both statistics-oriented and human-genetics-oriented researchers and graduate students to learn the specialized methodology for analysis of diverse genetic data. … a useful textbook for beginners trained in applied mathematics and statistics to take in a panoramic snapshot of the very evolving field of statistical genetics and genomics.
—Xiang-Yang Lou and David B. Allison, Biometrics, December 2011

Very useful for those taking courses in statistics and geneticists.
