Genetic Counseling Research: A Practical Guide is the first text devoted to research methodology in genetic counseling.

With a highly accessible, pedagogical approach, this book will help promote quality research by genetic counselors and research supervisors--and in turn, increase the knowledge base for genetic counseling practice, other aspects of genetic counseling service delivery, and professional education.
