Mendelism is a book written by Reginald Crundall Punnett and first published in 1911. The book is a comprehensive guide to the principles of genetics and the work of Gregor Mendel, the father of modern genetics. Punnett, a British geneticist, was a colleague of William Bateson, who introduced Mendel's work to the English-speaking world.The book begins with an introduction to the basic principles of genetics, including the structure and function of genes, the role of chromosomes in inheritance, and the laws of segregation and independent assortment. Punnett then delves into the history of genetics, tracing the development of the field from the early work of Mendel to the latest discoveries in the early 20th century.The book also includes detailed discussions of the inheritance of traits in plants and animals, including humans. Punnett explains the principles of dominance, recessiveness, and incomplete dominance, and provides numerous examples of how these principles apply in real-world situations.In addition, the book covers a range of related topics, including the genetics of sex determination, the role of mutations in evolution, and the application of genetics to agriculture and medicine. Throughout the book, Punnett provides clear explanations and numerous illustrations to help readers understand the complex concepts of genetics.Mendelism is a seminal work in the field of genetics, and it remains an important resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the science of inheritance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
