Recombinant DNA

Rating:
Summary: Mediocre attempt for a difficult subject.
Review: This book leaves readers with tons of questions. In some instances, information vital to understanding of the material is left out. The diagrams, however, are very helpful. Authors use confusing lingo which make a visual picture very unclear. Overall, the book lacks the technicality required for a good textbook. In-depth knowledge of the topics presented in this text requires the use of other resources.

Rating:
Summary: A good book for students
Review: This book shows the basic concepts in the DNA study. It's good to have as a reference book.

Summary: Mediocre attempt for a difficult subject.
Review: This little book is a decent review of techniques currently in use. It is a little simplistic at times, and gives few details, but for an undergraduate or the lay reader, this is an excellent book. Good, descriptive figures.

Summary: Wide range of topics for non-specialist and specialist alike
Review: We wrote this book for a wide range of audiences - for anyone who wants to know more about DNA-based science. Although 4 years old, it has stood the test of time pretty well and I think is still the best book of its kind on the market. The review in the "British Medical Journal" encapsulates what we were trying to achieve: "...'Recombinant DNA' provides an invaluable text for professionals, amateurs, students, molecular bniologists, and physicians...It is equally suitable for reading in the office, bathroom, or bedroom.
