Summary: Great books for a quick overview of biophysical methods!
Review: If you are looking for a spectacular, brand new textbook for an introductory or advanced course in biophysics, this book is highly recommended. I found that the book with its unique scope covers all the essential subjects of biophysics methods needed for the biophysics/biochemistry/medical student. A few years ago I was looking for all those methods in one book - but there was none available. I had to extract the information from 5 different books which was quite time consuming. So this book really fills a gap. Also, compared to other biophysics books it has far more graphics and contains a large amount of essential, previously unpublished information. The book is pleasant reading from beginning to the end and will give you a comprehensive picture of biophysics in a very educative fashion. In my opinion there is no cheaper way of education than reading a good book like this one.

Summary: Inspiring, Informative, Useful.
Review: Read this book before you start PhD program! Wish I have had this book earlier. Inspires you to aim higher than you might have otherwise attempted.

Rating:
Summary: Lots of novel methods!
Review: The book presents a lot of novel methods, in particular those related to biophysical nanotechnology and microwave technologies, that cannot be found in other textbooks.

Summary: A fantastic textbook for Biophysics
Review: This is a fantastic textbook on biophysics methods and techniques. I found it particularly useful for those who are theoreticians and computer modelers. As a theoretical biophysicist, I work on protein folding, protein structure prediction and ligand-receptor binding studies, and I was constantly looking for a book which contains all important and up-to-date experimental methods and techniques to better understand our experimental colleagues' work. Now I found it! If you are also looking for a book for introductory as well as advanced topics in biophysics methods, this book might be the one you are looking for. It essentially covers all the new and important subjects of this field. I found the chapters about proteomics, ion mobility spectrometry, and mass spectrometry, particularly interesting. I will try to include some of the material in the course "Biophysical Chemistry"(a graduate level course) that I am co-teaching, and I will strongly recommend this book to those who are interested in biophysics.

Summary: A necessary guide for biophysics/biochemistry students
Review: This is an outstanding overview of the entire field of biophysics methods. The textbook presents the most important biophysics topics including fascinating biophysical nanotechnology and proteomics methods. The author uses lots of figures and does a marvelous job describing complex issues in fairly easy to comprehend terms. It is fun to read this book.
