The presence of green and yellow ornamental plants around us, dark spots on our skin, people with brown and blue mosaic irises, and white-spotted dogs and horses are all well-known phenomena of life, and are recognisable genetic mosaics. Although such genetics mosaics live with us (and, in fact, we are all a genetic mosaics), little is known about the genetic bases of their origin. This book provides a general overview of the mechanisms that lead to the formation of different types of mosaics, listing an ample collection of examples to illustrate the impact of the genetic mosaics on our life. The book will appeal to the reader interested in understanding the relationship between genetic events and mosaicism, especially undergraduate and graduate students and medical doctors, as well as experts engaged in horticulture and animal breeding.

In his 2006 State of the Union speech, President George W. Bush asked the U.S. Congress to prohibit the ""most egregious abuses of medical research,"" such as the ""creation of animal-human hybrids."" The president's message echoed that of a 2004 report by the President's Council on Bioethics, which recommended that hybrid human-animal embryos be banned by Congress.Discussions of early interspecies research, in which cells or DNA are interchanged between humans and nonhumans at early stages of development, can often devolve into sweeping statements, colorful imagery, and confusing policy.

'Females are Mosaics' focuses on the X chromosome as a key to female development and the role of X-related factors in the etiology of sex differences in human disease.
