Synopsis

Genome analysis has been the single most significant advance in biomedicine in the last decade. A complete mapping of the genomes of selected model organisms should revolutionize our understanding of biology. Major developments are anticipated that will impact on the diagnosis and treatment of human disease. This short guide to the discipline provides a step-by-step outline of the techniques of gene mapping. It should be useful to students of molecular genetics, and to researchers seeking to use these revolutionary techniques in their work.

About this title

Review

"...an excellent distillation of current knowledge...The book is clearly written, well presented, and feels good. Recommended." Neil Stoker, Royal Veterninary College, London, Microbiology Today, Vol 30, November 2003

"There is no doubt that this book is a very useful source of information, for students and teachers alike. In spite of its dense text, it makes good reading and will help to reduce the general bewilderment induced by the rapid pace of technological and conceptual innovation in biology." Leon Otten, Plant Molecular Biology Institute, Plant Science, 2003.

Principles of Genome Analysis and Genomics, 3rd edition, is "very good indeed and deserves to be a widely popular resource for newcomers to genome analysis." J.Armour, University of Nottingham, Heredity, June 2004

From the Back Cover

Genome analysis remains high on the agenda for research in the life sciences. Since the first edition of Principles of Genome Analysis appeared, the sequencing of model genomes has continued to gather momentum, culminating in the publication of the first complete genomes of several species of bacteria and eukaryotic microbes. Living up to its title the book provides a step–by–step outline of the techniques of gene mapping. It has been fully revised and expanded for the second edition, and features a new chapter on sequence data analysis. Produced in two colours throughout and profusely illustrated, Principles of Genome Analysis is ideal as a course text for students of molecular genetics, genome analysis and molecular biotechnology
