This Fourth Edition is a continuation of the mission to trace the relevance of biological sex to normal function and to the experience of disease in humans. We are now twenty years into the postgenomic era. The theme of this text is to discuss advances in understanding the role of epigenetics in regulating gene expression in a dynamic, sex-specific way during human life.
