McKUSICK, Victor Almon (1921 - 2008) Mendelian inheritance in man; catalogs of autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, and X-linked phenotypes. Baltimore, MD: The Johns Hopkins University Press, 1966. Last expanded printed edition: 12th edition, 3 vols., 1998. VICTOR ALMON McKUSICK (1921 - 2008) was an American internist and medical geneticist, and Professor of Medicine at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore. He was a proponent of the mapping of the human genome due to its use for studying congenital diseases. He is widely known as the "father of medical genetics". Dr McKusick wrote an article in 1962 for the Quarterly Review of Biology titled 'On the X Chromosome of Man'. At that time, X-linkage had been established for about 60 traits in man and a genetic map of the X chromosome was presented. Four years later, with the addition of dominant and recessive traits, Dr McKusick published a book, Mendelian Inheritance in Man: Catalogs of Autosomal Dominant, Autosomal Recessive and X-linked Phenotypes (MIM). MENDELIAN INHERITANCE IN MAN was originally authored by McKusick, and he remained its chief editor through 12 editions. He also served as the chief editor of its online successor, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) until his death. The first edition of MIM was published in 1966, and the last printed (12th edition) was published in 1998. The first edition had 1400 entries and no mapped autosomal loci. Each catalogue contained summaries of genetic phenotypes reported in the biomedical literature, which were organized into numbered entries with descriptive synopses and references. With the addition of descriptions of genes, the focus of MIM became the relationship between phenotypes and genes. Over the years, catalogues for Y-linked and mitochondrial phenotypes and genes were added and by the 12th edition, the subtitle had been changed to 'A Catalog of Human Genes and Genetic Disorders'. Today the online version contains over 25,000 entries. It continues with the same basic organization but has grown to include complex traits and descriptions of the consequences of gene copy number variation and recurrent deletions/microdeletions and duplications/microduplications.--Joanna Amberger, Nucleic Acids Research, 2009.

Description
S. l. (Washington, DC): Blair & Rives, Printers, 1839. First Edition. Very good. First edition; 8 3/4 x 5 1/2; pp. [1], 2-20; self-wraps, removed; minor age-toning and spotting to margins; in very good or better condition. In 1834, 235 exiled Polish revolutionaries petitioned the US Congress for a grant of land, for the purpose of establishing a colony on the American frontier. The Government was sympathetic to the struggles of the Poles against Russia's tyranny in the Polish Revolution of 1830 and did grant the land, in Northern Illinois, although to call it a "grant" would have been generous, as it was more of a preemption right to purchase the land, after occupying it and cultivating it for ten years. Matters woulld get worse, when the land chosen by the Polish agent had already been occupied by native squatters. Support and sympathy for the Poles would war back and forth with anti-immigrant, anti-Catholic sentiments for the next few years and extensive debates would be held as to who was best suited to settled the land. Ultimately, Congress would side with the squatters, allowing them to purchase the land and nullifying the Polish grant in 1842. The current document was part of the ongoing battle.
