Reviews

I don't believe I have ever before read a microscopy textbook from cover to cover - but this one, reader, I did. Its two editors, Taekjip Ha and Paul Selvin, have set out to assemble a manual for cell biologists who want to extend their technical repertoires to include single-molecule techniques. They have succeeded admirably, and as a bonus the book provides a fascinating insight into where the technical limits lie, of how we stand - as the authors suggest in their introduction - at the beginning of a new era of single-molecule-based cell biology...This excellent book will be invaluable to anyone who is already competent at multimolecule data collection and interested in getting down to molecular mechanisms.
