Any Recommendations For Statistical Genetics Texts?

I see a bunch of new books on statistical genetics in Amazon now -

Statistical Genetics: Gene Mapping Through Linkage and Association

Handbook of Statistical Genetics (2 volume set)

Mathematical and Statistical Methods for Genetic Analysis

Statistical Genetics of Quantitative Traits: Linkage, Maps and QTL

Am I missing a classic book on Linkage and GWAS analysis?

(1) Introduction to Quantitative Genetics, Falconer and Trudy Mackay (2) Genetics and Analysis of Quantitative Traits by Michael Lynch and Bruce Walsh (3) Statistical Genomics: Linkage, Mapping, and QTL Analysis by Ben Hui Liu (4) Bioinformatics for Geneticists, Edited by Michael R Barnes and updated in 2007

I strongly recommend Douglas Falconers book. I loved it as an undergrad. I reviewed "Bioinformatics for Geneticists": Kerr AR, Genetical Res (2007), 89: 123-124. It can be read here http://tinyurl.com/39heg68

Statistical Methods in Genetic Epidemiology from D.C. Thomas is also interesting as it offers a great overview of linkage and association studies. Related resources can be found in the classical textbook of Rothman and Greenland (Modern Epidemiology, chapter 28), or more recently in Clinical Epidemiology (chapter 11). Also it is worth reading the Lancet's special issue on genetic epidemiology (2005, 366).

I am reading SMIGE at the moment, seems good.

Elston, Olston and Palmer is a fave. But costly. Ott's is the classic on linkage, not sure if it's on your list.

These are the books we use: (1) Introduction to Quantitative Genetics, Falconer and Trudy Mackay (2) Genetics and Analysis of Quantitative Traits by Michael Lynch and Bruce Walsh (3) Statistical Genomics: Linkage, Mapping, and QTL Analysis by Ben Hui Liu (4) Bioinformatics for Geneticists, Edited by Michael R Barnes and Ian C Gray

Larry, it will be interesting if you can provide a link to Amazon or Publisher's website for each of these books to get a quick look of the page.

Thanks. Larry, edit options is available to add links, or additional text to an answert. You may add the link in the original answer itself rather than opening separate one. This will help to reduce duplicate answers.

A Statistical Approach to Genetic Epidemiology: Concepts and Applications By Andreas Ziegler, Inke R. König
