Advanced Molecular Biology: A Concise Reference

Rating:
Summary: Informative with brevity
Review: I have found that this text has a significant amount of intelectual wealth devoted to its pages. Where it lacks in brevity, it provides for looking into the future for continuing trends in molecular biology. Details of the nature of several topics are sufficient, however some are not as descriptive as they could be. Good writing makes this book a good reference for graduate students.

Summary: Overall a very good reference
Review: This is a very easy to read book that definately helped me prepare for my comprehensive exam at the end of my first year of grad school. My only problem with it is that there are some errors -- the amino acid structures are not all correct, and there are also mistakes in the DNA structure figures. So while the book is still a great read, dont study from the figures!
