Reviews

...this book's greatest asset is that the authors clearly relish their subject so much that it makes enjoyable reading...this book has a delightfully literary, old-fashioned feel to it...crammed with detail and factually accurate...This book would be suitable in an advanced undergraduate or junior graduate course and deserves to do well... - Molecular Medicine Today
